The Old Time Way

There are so many things
That have changed today
And some have been for the best
But I would like to say
There is one thing
You can't improve upon
I like the old time way
Of praising the Lord

I like to hear that old time singing
I like to see the saints praising the Lord
I like to feel that old time Holy Power
Moving in my soul
Well, it makes me want to do
My very best to live right
Makes me glad to know I'm ready
For that heavenly flight
Makes me want to walk
The straight and narrow way
I like the old time way
Of praising the Lord

Whatever happened to
That old time Holy Book
That would make you walk right
And look the way you should look
We've changed it around
Explained it away
I like the old time way
Of praising the Lord

I like to hear that old time singing
I like to see the saints praising the Lord
I like to feel that old time Holy Power
Moving in my soul
Well, it makes me want to do
My very best to live right
Makes me glad to know I'm ready
For that heavenly flight
Makes me want to walk
The straight and narrow way
I like the old time way
Of praising the Lord

I like to hear that old time singing
I like to see the saints praising the Lord
I like to feel that old time Holy Power
Moving in my soul
Well, it makes me want to do
My very best to live right
Makes me glad to know I'm ready
For that heavenly flight
Makes me want to walk
The straight and narrow way
I like the old time way
Of praising the Lord

I like the old time way
Of praising the Lord
I like the old time way
Of praising the Lord
Praise the Lord, praise the Lord
Praise the Lord, praise the Lord
