"Old Camp Meeting Time" lyrics

Old Camp Meeting Time

How I like the old time
Preaching, praying, singing, shouting
How I like the old time
Reading of God's words

How I like to hear that
Old time hallelujah glory
How I like the old time
Worship of the Lord

Long ago when just a child
At old camp meeting time
How my heart would beat with joy
To hear the old bells chime

Calling all the saints of God
Onto the house of prayer
Oh such praying, singing, shouting
For the Lord was there

How I like the old time
Preaching, praying, singing, shouting
How I like the old time
Reading of God's words

How I like to hear that
Old time hallelujah glory
How I like the old time
Worship of the Lord

Preaching in them good old days
Was still the world acclaim
Preaching for the souls of men
And not for wordly fame

Under such old fashion preaching
Sinners knelt and pray
And the Lord would save them
In that good old fashion way

How I like the old time
Preaching, praying, singing, shouting
How I like the old time
Reading of God's words

How I like to hear that
Old time hallelujah glory
How I like the old time
Worship of the Lord
