[E] I like to sing an old song, one that I used to sing a long [C#m] time ago.
You see, this religion has gotten [G#] so modern today that people don't serve God like they used to.
I remember the [C#m] time when you could hear somebody say, [A] I came to Jesus just as I was.
I'm [F#] weary, cruel, and sad, [A] but I'm so glad I found in here a sweet resting place.
But every [D#] now and then when my [Am] burden gets heavy, I tell the [E] Lord these words, [B] Lord,
it is [E]
still [E] a burden for me.
Yet still there's somebody that don't understand it.
I remember a long time ago, when we used to get together, we sang an old time song that
we don't sing no more.
I'm going to add my little tune, let it shine on me.
[B] Every now and then I tell him, [A] sometimes when I'm knocked down to my knees, let the Lord
come.
Sometimes I'm called to be a child of God.
Sometimes my friends got to love me.
Let the Lord [B]
come.
