Youll Be Rewarded
(Louvin brothers - 1951)

(Mando short with 6th minor)

I am walkin' with my Lord each day,
Warning ev'ryone I see,
If they're headed down the wrong highway,
Askin' them to walk with me.
Join me in my prayer
If youre worried Jesus cares
If you'll serve him, in this life
Brother, you'll be rewarded over there
(Banjo)
Those who travel down the road of sin
Wear a lock upon their heart.
Seeking honor in the praise of men,
God to them will say "depart."
(Mando short with 6th minor)

You Cant Hide From God

(Jimmie Williams - 1959)

(Banjo 1-5-5-1)
You're walking through the valley of evil
You think you're having your fun
But there's coming a time you need Jesus
And there'll be no place you can run
No you cant hide from God
No matter where you may go
When he comes with his angels in heaven
You can't find no place he don't know
(Mandolin)
You can own a car and a mansion
You can have silver and gold
But me - I'd rather have Jesus
And know that I had peace in my soul
(Dobro)
He prayed on the mountain so lonely
And then we walked on the sea
He fed them all some little fishes
He died on the cross for you and me
(Banjo from 5)

If I Should Wander Back Tonight

(Dobro)
For many years I've been a rolling stone my darling
Like a gypsy I have roamed from place to place
Fortune never came to me, how happy I would be
Just to look again upon your smiling face
Now if I should wander back tonight
Would you be waiting
Would your eyes be filled with love's
Own tender light
Would your arms be empty dear,
Would you thrill to find me near
Would you love me if I'd wander back tonight
(Dobro)

Last night I dreamed that you and I were back together

I held your hand so gently in my own

Heard you say we'd never part as I pressed you to my heart

Then I woke in tears to find myself alone

Long Lonely Day

(Marty Robbins - 1953)

(Guitar)
At the end of a long lonely day without you
When the world seems to fall in my face
I'm all right through the day but the day fades away
And the long lonely night takes its place
Another day to wish that you were here
I dread each lonely night that's filled with fear
Oh I've tried and I've tried, these tears I can't hide

At the end of a long lonely day

(Mandolin-Dobro)
At the end of the day I go back to my room
And I watch as the sun fades away
And the loneliness there brings me grief and despair
At the end of a long lonely day
(Guitar-mandolin)

Unwanted Love
(Don Reno 1958)

(Banjo)
I'm wanting someone that's loved and lost
Someone who's known the thrill and paid the cost
Someone that says they'll never take a chance
On another broken heart lies false romance
Wanted an unwanted love
To share all the misery and pain
Of a heart that's unwanted and loved
And unwilling to gamble again
(Mandolin)
I don't want to love again I'm sure
Someone whose love is not sincere
I don't want someone who hasn't known
How it feels to love and be alone
(Dobro)
I know there are others like me
Alone, footloose and fancy free
Yet chained to a love they'll never claim
And afraid to ever love again
(Banjo)

06. D&G

Im Using My Bible For A Roadmap

(Don Reno 1952)

(Banjo)

There'll be no detours in heaven

No rough roads along the way
I'm using my Bible for a road map
My last stop is heaven some sweet day
I'm using my Bible for a road map
Ten Commandments they tell me what to do
The twelve disciples are my road signs
And Jesus will take me safely through
(Fiddle)
I'm using my Bible for a road map
The children of Israel used it too
They crossed the Red Sea of Destuction
For God was there to see them through
(Banjo)

Aint No Grave

He Took Your Place

(Lester Flatt 1951)

(Fiddle)
Upon the rugged cross of Calvary
Was there my blessed Savior cried
Forgive them for they know not what they do
Oh sinner friend, for thee he died
His hands are gently knocking on your door
Outside he's pleading to come in
His heart is breaking as he waits for you
To wash you free from every sin
(Dobro)
Someday he's coming back to claim his own
We'll fly to Heaven's golden shore
A crown of life he gives on that glad day
With him we'll live forever more
(Fiddle)
Those cruel thorns they pierced my Savior's head
The blood was flowing down his face
In shame, forsaken there he hung and died
Oh, sinner friend, he took you place

Oh Suzannah
(Stephen Foster - 1848)

(Banjo)
I come from Alabama with my banjo on my knee
I'm going to Louisiana, my true love for to see
It rained all night the day I left, and the weather it was dry

The sun so hot I froze to death, Susanna don't you cry

Oh Susanna,
Don't you cry for me
I came from Alabama
With my banjo on my knee
(Mandolin)
I had a dream the other night when everything was still

I thought I saw Susanna coming oer the hill

The buckwheat cake was in her mouth, a tear was in her eye

Says I'm coming from the south, Susanna don't you cry

(Dobro)
I think Ill go to New Orleans and then Ill look around
And when I find Susanna Im gonna fall upon the ground

But if I do not find her, I know Ill surely die

And when Im dead and buried, Susanna dont you cry

(Banjo)

Will I Meet Mother In Heaven

(Lonesome Pine Fiddlers 1951)

(Fingerpicked Guitar 1-5-1)

Will I meet mother in heaven?
Will they call her name up there?
Will I meet mother in heaven?
For I know that shell be waiting there
Shell be there, waiting there
I know that mother will be there
And when they call the roll, will I be pared to go

Will I meet mother in heaven?

(Dobro 1-5-1)
I remember the day God took her away
My lifes been a burden to bear
But Im hoping that today, before Im called away
That Ill meet mother in heaven
(Fingerpicked Guitar 1-5-1)
Once I went astray, I wondered far away
Not thinking of the days thats to come
But now that Im away I wish that I could say
That Ill meet mother in heaven

He Will Set Your Fields On Fire

There's a call that rings from the throne it springs

To those now gone astray
Saying "Come ye men from your load of sin
There at the alter lay"
Many do not heed that the chains of greed
that their conscience never tire
Be assured my friend if you still offend
He will set your fields on fire
If you don't from sin retire, he will set your fields on fire
You have heard Jesus' call, and in death your soul must fall
Now my friend if you desire, you may join the heavenly choir

And rejoice with him free from every sin

When He sets this world on fire

You have heard his voice seen His soul rejoice

That trusted in his grace
You have blushed with sin as He knocked within
But still you hide your face
From the blessed Lord and His own true word
But still you say retire
Leave the downward path kindle not His wrath
Or He'll set your fields on fire
Wont you take advice, make the sacrifice,
Completely turn from sin.
Taking up the cross, counting pleasures draw,
Let Jesus live within.
When temptations come you can face towards home,
Your heart will never tire.
But rejoice and pray on the last great day,
When He sets the world on fire
