Lyrics
King Jesus lit de candle by de waterside -- To see de little chillun when dey truly baptize. Honor, honor unto de dy-in' Lam'!
Oh, run along, chillun, an' be baptize. Mighty pretty meetin' by de waterside. Honor, honor unto de dy-in' Lam!
I prayed all day, I prayed all night,
My head got sprinkled wid de midnight dew.
Honor, honor unto de dy-in' Lam!
