We must look, we must look
For Jesus to care for us
'Cause you ought to know in Him
He is our only trust
Whatever we desire
Whenever we do pray
We must have the faith and believe
That He will do just what He said
Old Paul and Silas
In the Philippian jail, they were both bound
'Cause you ought to know in Jesus
They found enclothed around
When the dark hours of midnight
When everything was still
Old Paul, he whispered to Silas
Said, "Let's just do our master's will"
Old Silas, he began singing
Old Paul, he entered in prayer
Then Heaven, it got all stirred up
And an angel met them there
And the jail doors all flew open
And the jailer thought they was all gone
And he pulled for his sword for to kill himself
But Paul said, "Do thou self no harm"
He sprung out in the floor
And the light he wanted them to give
He replied to Paul and Silas
"What shall I do to be saved?"
By Paul being one of Christ's chosen men
Seen the jailer woke up in a fright
And he said that you must believe
In my Savior, Jesus Christ
I'm going home, going home
Going home on the morning train
If I happen to make it to leave
Oh, sure Lord, won't be my end
I'm sweeping up this old, feeble body
Oh, with sincere prayer
Oh, the place they call Heaven
I certainly wants to go there
