words and music by Cleavant Derricks



Verse 1:

I once was lost in sin, but Jesus took me in, 

And then a little light from heaven filled my soul;

It bathed my heart in love and wrote my name above, 

And just a little talk with Jesus makes me whole. 



Course: 

Now let us,  Have a little talk with Jesus, 

Let us, tell Him all about our troubles, 

He will, Hear our faintest cry, 

And He will, answer by and by; 

Now when you, Feel a little pary'r wheel turning, 

And you, know a little fire is burning.

You will, Find a little talk with Jesus makes it right. 



Verse 2:

Sometimes my path seems drear,without a ray of cheer, 

And then a cloud of doubt may hide the light of day;

The mists of sin may rise and hide the starry skies,

ut Just a little talk with Jesus clears the way. 



Verse 3:

I may have doubts and fears, my eyes be filled with tears, 

But Jesus is a friend who watches day and night;  

I go to m in prayer, He knows my every care, 

And Just a little talk with Jesus makes it right.
