Sam Cooke Jesus, Wash Away My Troubles song lyrics

Jesus, wash away my troubles

While I'm traveling here below

For I, I got enemies, Lord, you know

And Jesus, wash away my burdens

For they are so hard to bear

But I know there's consolation

As long as I know you're there, yes, it is

As long as I know you're there, yes, it is

You know sometimes I feel like a motherless child

I'm a long way from home

You know sometimes I feel like a [unverified] ghost

A long way from home

But Jesus, take me on to glory

Lord, when I, when I die

For I know that day is coming

Is coming by and by
