Lyrics Mahalia Jackson

Mahalia Jackson

Elijah Rock

Elijah rock shout shout

Elijah rock comin' up Lord

Elijah rock shout shout

Elijah rock comin' up Lord

Elijah, Elijah

Elijah

Elijah, Elijah

Elijah

Satan is a liar and a conjurer too

If you don't watch (mind) out

He'll conjure you

If I could I sho'ly would

Stand on the rock where Moses stood

Ezekiel said he saw him

Wheel in the mid' of a wheel

John talked about him

Book of the seven seals

Some say the Rose of Sharon

Others say the Prince of Peace

But I can tell everybody (this ol' world)

He's been a rock and a shelter for me

You can call my rock in the mornin'

Call him late at night

He's always with me

And all my battles He'll fight

When I'm in trouble

I can call him on the line

He put a telephone in my heart

And I can call God anytime
