The Kingston Trio
’Round About the Mountain
[Pre-Chorus]
'Round about the mountain
'Round about the mountain
My God is waitin'
You can rise in His arms

'Round about the mountain
'Round about the mountain
My God is waitin'
You can rise in His arms

[Chorus]
The Lord loves a sinner
The Lord loves a sinner man
The Lord loves a sinner
Who will rise in His arms

[Verse 1]
I would not be a sinner
Tell you the reason why
If the Lord should want me
I would not be ready to die

[Verse 2]
I tell you, fellow members
Things happen mighty strange
The Lord was good to Israel
And His ways don't ever change
[Chorus]
The Lord loves a sinner
The Lord loves a sinner man
The Lord loves a sinner
Who will rise in His arms

[Verse 3]
Sometimes I feel discouraged
And think my work's in vain
But then the Holy Spirit
Revives my soul again

[Verse 4]
If you can't pray like Peter
If you can't preach like Paul
Go home and tell your neighbors
That He died to save us all

[Chorus]
The Lord loves a sinner
The Lord loves a sinner man
The Lord loves a sinner
Who will rise in His arms

[Pre-Chorus]
'Round about the mountain
'Round about the mountain
My God is waitin'
You can rise in His arms
[Chorus]
The Lord loves a sinner
The Lord loves a sinner man
The Lord loves a sinner
Who will rise in His arms
