Oh Doctor Jesus,
look down on me wit' pity.
Put Yo' lovin' arms
thru the roof of dis house
an' lif' me to Yo' bosom
til de storm is over.
Oh, Doctor Jesus,
look down on me,
why is you angry
wit' dis po' singer?
Why is You cryin' dose tears,
an' mumblin' dat thunder
when I ain' got nuthin'
but rev'rence in my heart
for You Lawd.
Oh, Doctor Jesus.
look down on me.
If you is lookin' down
on me wit' disfavor
I ain' know what to do
'Cause if worshippin' You
ain't stoppin' dose tears
an' dat thunder, Lawd,
I ain' know
jes' what to do Lawd.
Oh, Doctor Jesus
look down on me
I's beseechin' You
to look down on me
wit' pity
An' I's hopin'
You's about to put
Yo' lovin' arms thru the roof
of dis house
an' lif' me to Yo' bosom,
Amen.
