[Verse 1]
One day as I was walkin' and talkin' down that lonesome road
Well an angel spoke unto me, Lord, and he filled my heart with joy, joy, joy
One day as I was walkin' and talkin' down that lonesome road
The angel said "I thank God I'm in his care"

[Chorus]
Well, it's "I am in his care," yes I'm in my savior's care
Lord it's "I am in his care," in his care
Well, angels' flockin' all around me, Lord
And the evil thoughts can't harm me, Lord
And I thank God I'm in his care

[Verse 2]
Well I would not live a sinner, Lord, I'll tell you why
Well I'm 'fraid my lord would call me home and I wouldn't be ready to die
Lord I would not live a sinner, Lord I'll tell you the reason why
The angel said "I thank God I'm in his care"

[Chorus]
Well well well it's "I am in his care," Lord I'm in my savior's care
Lord it's "I am in his care," in his care
Now, angels' start flocking all around me, Lord
And the evil thoughts can't harm me, Lord
And I thank God I'm in his care
Yes I'm in his care
[Outro]
(I am in his care, in my savior's care)
(I am in his care, in his care)
(I thank God I'm in his care)
Down that lonesome road
I'm in his care
