Little Delta Church

Little Delta Church

(альбом: Sunday Morning With Charley Pride - 1975)

Amazing Grace how sweet the sound that saved a wretch like me

Along the river by the road near a Mississippi town
Was a place where my family loved to go
Was the church house with a steeple and was always filled with people
Cause the neighbors came from miles and miles around

As a boy and as a man in the front row I would stand
And raise my voice to God up in the sky
Everybody joined the singing till the little church was ringing
With songs like In The Sweet By And By

In the sweet by and by
We shall meet on that beautiful shore
Though I've long been lost in sin I can dream me back again
To the little church that's nestled in my mind

In the early part of May delta nights were hard to take
So we opened up the windows and the doors
The congregation sat and fanned some with bibles in their hands
Out into the night the words of God would pour

Precious memories how they linger
How they ever flood my soul
In the stillness of the midnight
Precious sacred scenes unfold

In the sweet by and by
We shall meet on that beautiful shore
Though I've long been lost in sin I can dream me back again
To the little church that's nestled in my mind
