Hey brother don't you sing so quiet, no I need a beacon to guide me through the night Oh let me hear your hosanna Come on and let me hear your prayer I'm going down to the city, I got a home there Oh my heart is tattered and my spirit grows cold Let me see your wisdom Lord before I get too old Let me hear your hosanna Come on and let me hear your prayer I'm going down to the city, I got a home there Struggle out on the wheel I don't know better way Tell my soul's up in heaven and the world's gone away Let me hear your hosanna Come on and let me hear your prayer I'm going down to the city, I got a home there The last day's done and the darker hour draws nigh Might the wings of gold surround me and my salvation fine Let me hear your hosanna Come on and let me hear your prayer I'm going down to the city, I got a home there No more than the sinner needing faith and love Simple grace my soul and my shield armor to run this Christian race Let me hear your hosanna Come on and let me hear your prayer I'm going down to the city, I got a home there
