Song of the Week

A song from the Fairfield Four, a gospel group founded 90 years ago.  Some of you may remember them from their work on O Brother Where Art Thou?  Isaac Freeman is my favorite bass of all time.  I hope this song gets your blood flowing and helps you through the week. 

My God Called Me This Morning
Well my God called this morning
Just a little while before day

Well I stopped and I listened
How sweet the voice did sound
It sounded like a beat beat beatin’ of an angels wings
I seen him from the heaven coming down
and then I stags 
and I steadied myself I looked but I saw no one
til I go away up in glory and I saw God’s darlin’ son
let me tell you that the prayer wheel
started to turning and the Spirit of God
said my son was murdered and the prayer wheel
turned over and I moved one step on to glory
and I rose up a shoutin’, shoutin’ Lord God Almighty

Well, my God called me this mornin’
just a little while before day

Well I heard the rumblin’ thunder
and I saw the sinners goin’ under
just a little while before day
then I saw the zigzag lightning
Well I heard the hellhound barking
just a little while before day
well now stop let me tell you
what my God said to me, he said:
If you want to make it to the Kingdom
you better fall on your bended knees
