That Old Time Preacher Man Songtext

von Bill & Gloria Gaither and Their Homecoming Friends

Well,
I went down to the big camp meeting twas most for to see the sight
But I got such a hearty greet-in' that I went back ev - 'ry night
They had an old-time gospel preacher from the good book he solemnly read
But when he started preach-in 'bout soul salvation you oughta heard the things he said You oughta heard him when he preached the blessed holy word
You oughta heard him such preachin you have never heard
Well he looked the congregation right straight in the face And then he started preachin 'bout savin' grace
He preached about a hour about the sermon on the mount
And when he ended up he had the devil on the route
You oughta heard him that old time preacher man
He led three songs for the congregation, and knelt in a word of prayer
He turned to chapter five in Matthew, and he took his text from there
He preached the real old time salvation, and he sut'in-'ly proved himself
For after he extended the invitation, there wasn't any sinners left (chorus)
