In thy holy name, won't you give me just another day
There's some thing I need to do before I pass away
I have some friends that's won't live right, but now they're goin' wrong
Give me just one day Lord, then I'll be comin' home.

Brother James from down the road won't pray in church next Sunday
Give me just one day, Lord, give me just one more day
When I tell him what you can do he'll still be prayin' Monday
Give me just one day, Lord, give me just one day.

In thy holy name, won't you give me just another day
There's some thing I need to do before I pass away
I have some friends that's won't live right, but now they're goin' wrong
Give me just one day Lord, then I'll be comin' home.

You raised money Reverend Brown, preachin' revelations
Give me just one day, Lord, give me just one day
When I tell them what he can do then he'll make all donations
Give me just one day, Lord, give me just one day.

In thy holy name, won't you give me just another day
There's some thing I need to do before I pass away
I have some friends that's won't live right, but now they're goin' wrong
Give me just one day lord, then I'll be comin' home...
