My heart is longing now for the days of long ago
And that old country church where mother used to go
The choir, you'd scarcely say, was the best you ever heard
But that old-fashioned preacher would claim God's holy word
That old-fashioned preacher that told us of the cross
How Jesus came down to save those who were lost
You could feel the Holy Spirit, and you knew that God was there
When that old-fashioned preacher would kneel to lead in prayer
ย
In fancy I can hear as if it were today
When he said the blood of Jesus would take your sins away
There seemed to be a tear in almost every eye
When he told us how for love, the Savior had to die
That old-fashioned preacher that told us of the cross
How Jesus came down to save those who were lost
You could feel the Holy Spirit, and you knew that God was there
When that old-fashioned preacher would kneel to lead in prayer

You could feel the Holy Spirit, and you knew that God was there
When that old-fashioned preacher would kneel to lead in prayer
