A Sinner’s Death I’m Dying - Roy Acuff

Here I lay upon my dying pillow

Around my bed there’s someone getting dark

They are watching the saddest thing that can happen

They are seeing a sinner as he dies

As death’s cold shadow hovers o’er me

To all sinners I plead with my last breath

Don’t shun the work of God that’s what I’ve done

And tonight I’m dying a sinner’s death

No one can know until he faces it

How bad dying a sinner can be

I’m facing it now as I plead with you

Don’t let it be with you as it is with me

My eyes feel so heavy as death claims me

No one can truthfully say I’m going to rest

When you look upon my face please have pity

Yes pity and hope for the best
