 Well my goodness gracious, let me tell you the news
 My head's been wet with midnight dew
 I've been down on bended knee
 Talkin' to the man from Galilee
 He spoke to me in His voice so sweet
 I thought that I heard the shuffle of angel's feet
 He called my name, and my heart stood still
 When He said, "John, go do My will!"

 Well, you may throw your rock and hide your hand
 Workin' in the dark against your fellow man
 As sure as God made black and white
 What's done in the dark will be brought to the light
