Dying Gambler (6763) Lyrics

[Intro]
Now I'm gonna sing a song tonight, and whiles I sing, I want every sinner in the building, come to the [?] and bow, and accept prayer. The origin of this song begins when a dying gambler was on his bed dying. Men, you ought to stop gambling. Men, if I were you, I would say "Tonight, live or die, sink or swim, I'm going to Jesus as I am." Men, you ought to stop gambling. Whiles I sing, I want every, mm, every soul in this building tonight, lift up your voice and sing. Did you hear this gambler in your mind, as he lay on his dying bed, said:

[Verse 1]
"Lord have mercy
Lord have mercy
Lord have mercy
Save me, Lord"

[Interlude]
Oh yes, ah, can't you see, in your mind [?]
When his mothеr standin' over his bed
Sisters and brothеrs standin' around his dying bed
Can't you see, ah, when he turned his head and cried:

[Verse 2]
"I am a-dyin'
I am a-dyin'
I am a-dyin'
Save me, Lord"

[Interlude]
'Bout that time when the death rattle that came in his throat
And his fingernails were turned purple and blue
And a-death was cuttin' loose that [?] cord that makes a true connection with the soul and body
Mmm, you could hear this gamblin' man cry:

[Verse 1]
"Lord have mercy
Lord have mercy
Lord have mercy, have mercy Lord
Save me, Lord"
