One Drop of Water Lyrics


The rich man lived in luxury surrounded by his door
He always had the very best that money could afford
He left this world not caring about his resting place
He laid his eyes toward Heaven, but it was too late
CHORUS:
Give me one drop of water, the rich man cried from Hell
One drop of water, but still no water felt
He always was a selfish man, his heart was filled with greed
Now a little drop of water is all he'll ever need
You can't love gold and silver and love the Savior too
Like the eye of the needing no chance of getting through
So make your reservation before another day
For all your gold and silver will surely pass away
CHORUS:
Give me one drop of water, the rich man cried from Hell

One drop of water, but still no water felt
He always was a selfish man, his heart was filled with greed
Now a little drop of water is all he'll ever need
There's one way to Heaven, its by amazing grace
Where everyone is equal no matter creed or race
So have no other Bible, and always put God first
We'll live on milk and honey, and we will never thirst
CHORUS:
Give me one drop of water, the rich man cried from Hell
One drop of water, but still no water felt
He always was a selfish man, his heart was filled with greed
Now a little drop of water is all he'll ever need
Now a little drop of water is all he'll ever need

Ralph Stanley (born in 25 February 1927) is an American bluegrass musician. Stanley was born in Big Spraddle Creek, Virginia, near Stratton, Dickenson County, Virginia, USA. The son of Lucy and Lee Stanley, Ralph Edmond Stanley grew up in rural southwestern Virginia. Ralph learned to play the banjo claw-hammer style from his mother. It was her inspiration, coupled with Ralph's natural ability, which led Ralph and his older guitar-playing brother Carter to form the Stanley Brothers Band in 1946 after his service abroad during World War 2.
