That samarian woman

Came running to the city

To talk about the man she saw

She took her pitcher

And went to the well

And water she intended to draw

The stranger she met there

She didn't know where he came from

But when he told her

Every sinful thing she had done

She said the man at the well

Blessed my soul and gone

Her friends in town asked her

Did you know that man

She said no I never saw him before

They asked her did you get his name

She said he didn't tell me and I don't know

'Cause when he spoke my soul caught on fire

And I'll remember this day 'til the day that I die

And he stopped by

And blessed my soul and gone

The stranger was next seen in the city

He was standing off an angry mob

Defending a women that had been caught

In the very act of adultery

For pity and mercy she sought

He said ye who is without sin cast the first stone

And when he raised her from the ground

All her accusers were gone

He gave her a smile and waved farewell and was gone

The crowd asked her

Did you know that man

She said no I never saw him before

They asked her don't you know his name

She said he didn't tell me and I don't know

But when he touched me I felt the power from his arms

And I don't plan again to do no wrong

I'm just glad he stopped by

And saved my life and gone

I met that same man

Talking about that same man

When I turned away from sin

He opened up his arms and let me in

I got that same power

My soul caught on fire

I'm just glad he stopped by

In Alabama

I'm glad he stopped by

One Tuesday evening

Glad he stopped by

And blessed my soul and gone
