Текст песни Big Chief Battle Axe (Bunk Johnson) с переводом

Come all you people 'round

Listen what I have to say

I’ll sing you a song about the heavenly throng

Thank God, I’m on my way

I’ve traveled the paths of sin

And many a crime I’ve done

But I trust in God

And through Christ’s blood

Thank God, the victory’s won

Walking in the way with Jesus

Feeling mighty, happy now

When I’m tempted to do wrong

Before the Lord I bow

I ask Him for protection

And we begin to fight

And it’s not long till the tempter’s gone

And everything’s all right

I came to the feet of Jesus

Determined to do right

I prayed and trusted night and day

Until I saw the light

I’ve started now for heaven

I’m taking a different trail

I’m trusting now in the promises of God

For I know they cannot fail

Walking in the way with Jesus

Feeling mighty, happy now

When I’m tempted to do wrong

Before the Lord I bow

I ask Him for protection

And we begin to fight

And it’s not long till the tempter’s gone

And everything’s all right

God leads me to the Bible

Where I can plainly see

That Jesus hung on Calvary’s cross

And died for you and me

I’m sorry now for sinners

For you, I’m sick at heart

Why can’t you decide for Christ today

And never from Him part?

Walking in the way with Jesus

Feeling mighty, happy now

When I’m tempted to do wrong

Before the Lord I bow

I ask Him for protection

And we begin to fight

And it’s not long till the tempter’s gone

And everything’s all right

I gave up sin and drinking

To live a different life

And by God’s grace I will hold out

Till freed from toil and strife

Then when life’s book is opened

And not a thing is found

I’ll gladly join the angel choir

And receive the promised crown

Walking in the way with Jesus

Feeling mighty, happy now

When I’m tempted to do wrong

Before the Lord I bow

I ask Him for protection

And we begin to fight

And it’s not long till the tempter’s gone

And everything’s all right
