"Round About The Mountain" lyrics - RHIANNON GIDDENS

Round about the mountain, 'round about the mountain
My Lord's a rulin' and she'll rise in His arms
Round about the mountain, 'round about the mountain
My Lord's a rulin' and she'll rise in His arms

[Chorus:]
The Lord loves a sinner, the Lord loves a sinner, man
The Lord loves a sinner, and she'll rise in his arms

When I was a sinner, a seekin' just like you
I went down in the valley and I prayed 'til I come through
You hypocrite, you concubine, your place among the swine
You go to God with your lips and tounges, but you leave your heart behind

[Bridge:]
Goin' 'round the mountain, there I'll take my stand
I heard the voice of Jesus, thank God he's in this land

[Chorus:]
The Lord loves a sinner, the Lord loves a sinner, man
The Lord loves a sinner, and she'll rise in his arms
