As the choirs sing, pass me not, oh gentle savior Something stabbed me like a sword He was calling, walk with me But I couldn't walk, I had to run to meet my Lord I couldn't walk, I had to run to meet my Lord He's been patiently waiting at my door Jesus wanted me free from sin The Devil in me wouldn't let him in But I finally couldn't walk, I had to run to meet my Lord As the choirs sing, softly and tenderly, Jesus is calling I was crying tears of joy Then my savior smiled on me Now my heart is singing singing singing for my Lord I couldn't walk, I had to run to meet my Lord He's been patiently waiting at my door Jesus wanted me free from sin The Devil in me wouldn't let him in But I finally couldn't walk, I had to run to meet my Lord Praise God, I couldn't walk, I had to run to meet my Lord
