Old Time Religion Country Style

It was in a country church where we heard the angels sing,

Though we didn’t have a choir, we made the rafters ring.

Folks would walk a country mile just to hear the spoken word,

And lift their happy voices, singing praises to the Lord.

Chorus:

Give me that old time religion, done in country style.

Give me that old time religion and I’ll linger a while.

Just to hear hosannas ring, singing praises to the King,

Give me that old time religion, done in country style.

I can remember my mama and daddy kneeling there in prayer.

No matter how heavy the burden, they always left it there.

And we felt a little closer as we heard the spoken Word.

Then we’d lift our happy voices, singing praises to the Lord.

Chorus
