Refrain

Steal away, steal away, steal away to Je­sus!
Steal away, steal away home,
I ain’t got long to stay here.

My Lord, He calls me,
He calls me by the thun­der;
The trum­pet sounds with­in my soul,
I ain’t got long to stay here.

Refrain

Green trees are bend­ing,
Poor sin­ners stand a-trembling;
The trum­pet sounds with­in my soul,
I ain’t got long to stay here.

Refrain

My Lord, He calls me,
He calls me by the light­ning;
The trum­pet sounds with­in my soul,
I ain’t got long to stay here.
