No. 87. Hard Trials.
1. The foxes have holes in the ground,
The birds have nests in the air,
The Christians have a hiding-place,
But we poor sinners have none;
Now ain't them hard trials,
tribulations?
ain't them hard trials?
I'm going to live with God!
2. Old Satan tempted Eve,
And Eve, she tempted Adam;
And that's why the sinner has to pray so hard
To get his sins forgiven.
3. Oh, Methodist, Methodist is my name,
Methodist till I die;
I'll be baptized on the Methodist side,
And a Methodist will I die.
4. Oh, Baptist, Baptist is my name,
Baptist till I die;
I'll be baptized on the Baptist side,
And a Baptist will I die.
5. While marching on the road,
A hunting for a home,
You had better stop your different names,
And travel on to God.
