I Once Was Lost in Sin

Cat. #1184 (MFH #820) - As sung by Ollie Gilbert, Mountain View, Arkansas on August 31, 1971

VERSE 1
I once't was lost in sin
Jesus took me in
An' with a little light, from Heaven
Filled my soul
He filled my heart with love
An' he wrote my name above
Just a little talk with Jesus makes me whole

CHORUS:
So, let us have a little talk with Jesus
Let us tell 'im all about our troubles
He will hear our anxious cry
He will answer by an' by
When we feel a little prayer is turning
When we know th little fire is burning
When we have a little talk with Jesus makes it right

VERSE 2
I may have doubts an' fears
My eyes is full of tears
But Jesus is a friend who watches day an' night
I go to Him in prayer
He knows my ever care
An' just a little talk with Jesus makes it right
