Lyrics

Oh I’d like to go back
To that old country church
To hear the songs of praise
How the people would sing
It would make the rafters ring
At that old (at that old) country church.


Shall we gather at the river
The beautiful, beautiful river
Gather with the saints at the river
That flows by the throne of God


Oh I’ll never forget
At that old country church
How the Glory of the Lord came down
And the children would smile
As they shouted down the aisle
Of that old (of that old) country church


In the sweet (in the sweet) by and by (by and by)
We shall meet on that beautiful shore.
In the sweet by and by
We shall meet on that beautiful shore.


Then on Sunday I’d see
All my friends dear to me
At that old (at that old) country church
When it came time for prayer
Everybody would be there
At that old (at that old) country church


Leaning, oh yes I’m leaning
Safe and secure from all alarms
Leaning, oh yes I’m leaning
Leaning on the ever lasting arms


Now the years have gone by
And so many have died
At that old country church
But they are on that other shore
Where they'll sing forever more
As they did at that old country church


I’m redeemed by Love Divine
Glory, Glory, Christ is mine
All to Him I now resign
I have been, I have been redeemed


I’m redeemed by Love Divine
Glory, Glory, Christ is mine
All to Him I now resign
I have been, I have been redeemed
