Get down with him      I would risk the serpent's bite   I would dance around with seven   I would kiss the diamond back   If I knew it would get me to heaven      'Cause I want to get right with God   Yes, you know you got to get right with God      I would burn the soles of my feet   Burn the palms of both my hands   If I could learn and be complete   If I could walk righteously again      'Cause I want to get right with God   Yes, you know you got to get right with God      I would sleep on a bed of nails   Till my back was torn and bleeding   In the deep darkness of hell   The Damascus of my meeting      I want to get right with God   Yes, you know you got to get right with God      I asked God about His plan   To save us all from Satan's slaughter   If I give up one of my lambs   Will You take me as one of Your daughters?      'Cause I want to get right with God   Yes, you know you got to get right with God      'Cause I want to get right with God   Yes, you know you got to get right with God      'Cause I want to get right with God   Yes, you know you got to get right with God      'Cause I want to get right with God   Yes, you know you got to get right with God
