New Hymn for today . . . 'Old-Time Gospel'

Old-Time Gospel

Let's sing that old-time Gospel

Of repentance and the Word;

Let's share the love of Jesus,

And make our voices heard.

Let's sing of joy and sorrow,

And the promise of tomorrow -

Let's all praise our Lord!

We'll sing 'Glory, alleluia!'

We'll raise our hands on high;

Of meeting at the river,

And the sweet bye and bye.

We'll sing our songs of gladness,

No more sorrow, no more sadness;

Let us all praise our Lord!

Glory, glory, alleluia!

Let us glorify the King;

Let's give ourselves completely,

And all our praises bring.

Let us sing the Gospel song,

How Jesus triumphed over wrong;

 Let us all praise our Lord!

Let's sing that old-time Gospel

Of repentance and the Word;

Let's share the love of Jesus,

And make our voices heard.

Let's sing of joy and sorrow,

And the promise of tomorrow -

Let's all praise our Lord!

Let's sing of joy and sorrow,

And the promise of tomorrow -

Let's all praise our Lord!
