COME TREMBLEING DOWN- Henry Edward Krehbiel 1914
Come trembleing down,
Go shouting home,
Safe in the sweet arms of Jesus.
Come trembleing down,
Go shouting home,
Safe in the sweet arms of Jesus.
'Twas just about the break of day,
King Je-sus stole my heart a-way;
'Twasjust about the break of day,
King Je-sus stolemy heart a-way.
