Wade In The Water – Ella Jenkins Letra, Lyrics:
(Wade in the water)
(Wade in the water)
Wade in the water
Wade in the water, children
Wade in the water
God is gonna trouble these waters
Wade in the water
Wade in the water, children
Wade in the water
God is gonna trouble these waters
See that band all dressed in white
(God is gonna trouble these waters)
It look like a band of the israelites
(God is gonna trouble these waters)
Wade in the water
Wade in the water, children
Wade in the water
God is gonna trouble these waters
See that band all dressed in red
(God is gonna trouble these waters)
Look like a band that moses led
(God is gonna trouble these waters)
Wade in the water
Wade in the water, children
Wade in the water
God is gonna trouble these waters
My lord delivered Daniel well
Daniel well, Daniel well
Didn’t my lord deliver Daniel well
Then why not every man?
My lord delivered Daniel well
Daniel well, Daniel well
Didn’t my lord deliver Daniel well
Then why not every man?
Man went down to the river
Man went down to the river, lord
Man went down to the river
Went down there for to pray
Man went down to the river
Man went down to the river, lord
Man went down to the river
To wash his sins all away
Washed all day, washed all night
Washed till his hands were sore
Washed all day, washed all night
Till he couldn’t wash a-no more
(Hey)
Man went down to the river
Man went down to the river, lord
Man went down to the river
Went down there for to pray
Man went down to the river
Man went down to the river, lord
Man went down to the river
To wash his sins all away
Wade in the water
Wade in the water, children
Wade in the water
God is gonna trouble these waters
Wade in the water
Wade in the water, children
Wade in the water
God is gonna trouble these waters
God is gonna trouble these waters
God is gonna trouble these waters
