The Old Country Church

1
Oh I’d like to go back to that Old Country Church
And to hear the songs of praise songs of praise
How the people would sing it would make the Heavens ring
At that Old at that Old Country Church

Shall we gather at the river the beautiful the beautiful river
Gather with the saints at the river that flows by the throne of God

2
Oh I’ll never forget at that Old Country Church
how the glory of the Lord came down It came down
And the children would smile as they shouted down the aisle
Of that Old of that Old Country Church

In the sweet by and by we shall meet on that beautiful shore
In the sweet by and by we shall meet on that beautiful shore

3
Then on Sunday to see all my friends so dear to me
At that Old Country Church Country Church
When it came time for prayer ev’rybody would be there
At that Old at that Old Country Church

Leaning leaning safe and secure from all alarms
Leaning leaning leaning on the Everlasting Arms

4
Now the years have gone by and so many have died
At that Old— Country Church Country Church
But they’re on the other shore and they’ll sing forevermore
As they did at that Old Country Church

I’m redeemed by love divine Glory glory Christ is mine
All to Him I now resign I have been redeemed
