Hush little baby, don't you cry
You know your mother's bound to die
All my trials, Lord, soon be over

Too late, my brother, too late, but never mind
All my trials, Lord, soon be over

If religion was a thing that money could buy
The rich would live and the poor would die
All my trials, Lord, soon be over

Too late my brothers, too late, but never mind
All my trials, Lord, soon be over

I had a little book 'twas given to me
And every leaf spelled "victory"
All my trials, Lord, soon be over

Too late, my brothers, too late, but never mind
All my trials, Lord, soon be over

Well, the tallest tree in Paradise
Don't you know it's the Tree of Life
All my trials, Lord, soon be over

Too late, my brothers, too late, but never mind
All my trials Lord, soon be over
Hush little baby, don't you cry
You know your mother's bound to die
All my trials, Lord, soon be over

Too late, my brother, too late, but never mind
All my trials, Lord, soon be over
