Long, long ago I had the devil tugging at my sleeve
Long, long ago I nearly fell into his ways of sin
But then I called for the arms of God
And he swept me up
Hallelujah, hallelujah!
Long, long ago I had a desert to cross and more
Long, long ago I was walking up and down a lonely shore
But then I came to the ship of The Lord
And I climbed on board
Hallelujah, hallelujah!
Well the devil tell me that he's gonna make me suffer like no other
No other man
Because he very nearly had me in his army permanently
In the palm of his hand
But then The Lord came from above
And filled my heart with love
Hallelujah, hallelujah!
Long, long ago I had the devil tugging at my sleeve
Long, long ago I nearly fell into his ways of sin
But then I called for the arms of God
And he swept me up
Hallelujah, hallelujah!
Hallelujah, hallelujah!
Hal-le-lu-jah!
