Old Time Religion
Give me that old-time religion,
Give me that old-time religion,
Give me that old-time religion
It's good enough for me.
It was good for our fathers,
It was good for our fathers,
It was good for our fathers,
It's good enough for me.
It was good for our mothers,
It was good for our mothers,
It was good for our mothers,
It's good enough for me.
It was good for Paul and Silas,
It was good for Paul and Silas,
It was good for Paul and Silas,
It's good enough for me.
It makes you love ev'rybody,
It makes you love ev'rybody,
It makes you love ev'rybody,
It's good enough for me.
It makes you love the Bible,
It makes you love the Bible,
It makes you love the Bible,
It's good enough for me.
It will do when you are dying,
It will do when you are dying,
It will do when you are dying,
It's good enough for me.
It will take us all to heaven,
It will take us all to heaven,
It will take us all to heaven,
It's good enough for me.
