Theater, Music-Hall, Nostalgic, Irish & Historic Old Songs, Volume 6
De Lord Delivered DanieL
Sung by Miss Flora Moore.
He delivered Daniel from de lion's den,
Jonah from de belly of de whale,
And de Hebrew children from de fiery furnace.
And why not every man?
Chorus.
Didn't my Lord deliver Daniel?
Daniel, DanielĀDidn't my Lord deliver Daniel?
Den why not every man?
You may go dis way, you may go dat way,
You may go from door to door,
If you ain't got de grace of de Lord in your heart,
De debbel will cotch you sure.-Chorus.
De debbil threw a stone at me,
He threw it from de top story,
De stone missed, rolled down do hill,
And I rolled into glory.-Chorus.
