I stumbled upon a wonderful tune by the Country Gentleman called “Lord Don’t Leave Me Here” sometime last month and I simply fell in love with it. Of course, I love lots of Blue Grass music so that’s probably not very surprising.

The Country Gentlemen have been around a long time, so I was surprised when a Google search didn’t find the lyrics posted anywhere to this lovely song. I’ve been trying to figure out the lyrics all month long. However, after listening to the song for about an hour now, I’ve finally figured them out.  🙂

Lord Don’t Leave Me Here!

by: The Country Gentlemen
Joe’s Last Train

When this earth falls on fire
and hearts are filled with fear.
When I, see the morning star.
Oh, Lord don’t leave me here.

Dear Lord, when you come again,
and eyes, are filled with tears.
Let me, go with thee, to reign.
Oh, Lord don’t leave me here.

This world, will begin to rock
the way will be dark and drear’.
I’ll be with the righteous flock.
Oh, Lord don’t leave me here.

Dear Lord, when you come again
and eyes are filled with tears.
Let me go with thee, to reign.
Oh, Lord don’t leave me here.

Dear Lord, will you let me be,
prepared when you shall appear.
I’ll cry, hear my daily plea,
Oh, Lord don’t leave me here.

Dear Lord, when you come again
and eyes are filled with tears.
Let me go with thee to reign.
Oh, Lord don’t leave me here.
