Lyrics: Sweet Savior’s Arms

I lay my head down by the side of the road
A dry jug of wine at my feet
My fingertips tremble with yearning
My blessed redeemer to meet

Wrapped in my sweet Savior’s arms
The wolves of this world
They won’t do me no harm
When I’m wrapped in my sweet Savior’s arms

I lay my last losin’ hand on the line
My last honest days worth of pay
The dealer don’t show all the riches I know
Wait in heaven for me judgement day

I lay my body ‘neath a strange sinner man
My heart slowly turning to stone
But I’ll be an angel in garments of white
When my Jesus is taking me home
