Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Oh, Lord, dear Lord above
God almighty
God of love
Please look down and see my people through
[Verse 2]
Mmm, Lord, dear Lord above
God almighty, God
Of love
Please look down and see my people through
[Verse 3]
I believe that God put sun and moon up in the sky
I don't mind the gray skies
'Cause they're just clouds passing by
[Verse 4]
Up from dawn till sunset
Work hard all the day
Come Sunday, come Sunday
That day
[Verse 5]
I believe that God, God put sun and moon up in the sky
I don't mind the gray skies
'Cause they're just clouds passing by
[Verse 6]
Up from dawn till sunset
People work hard all the day
Sunday, oh, but Sunday
That's the day, ooh
[Verse 7]
Sunday, oh, Sunday, oh
Sunday
That's the day
Oh, come Sunday
Written by: Edward Kennedy Ellington
