Old Camp Meetin' Time

(album: Hymns - 1965)

How I like the old time preaching praying singing shouting
How I like the old time reading of God's words
How I like to hear that old time hallelujah glory
How I like the old time worship of the Lord

Long ago when just a child at old camp meeting time
How my heart would beat with joy to hear the old bells chime
Calling all the saints of God onto the house of prayer
Oh such praying singing shouting for the Lord was there
How I like the old time preaching...
[ banjo ]
Preaching in them good ole days was still the world acclaim
Preaching for the souls of men and not for wordly fame
Under such old fashion preaching sinners knelt and pray
And the Lord would save them in that good ole fashion way
How I like the old time preaching...
