C
At first when I heard of some people who claim
G
That the old-time religion was real
C F
I said \"I'll go down, take a look at the crowd
C G C
For just that weak minded I feel.\"
C
I walked up the steps and I peeked in the door,
G
But the Devil said, \"Don't you go in!\"
C F
But I said, \"It won't hurt me, I'll just step inside,
C G C
And I'll set as far back as I can.\"
C
Somethin' got a hold of me, praise God!
G
Yes, somethin' got a hold of me, oh Lord!
C F
I went there to fight, but I'll tell you that night,
C G C
God certainly got a hold of me.
C
They sang like they meant it, they all clapped their hands,
G
I said, \"It's commotion, that's all.\"
C F
\"When they get down to pray, I'll just get up and leave,
C G C
For I don't wanna be seen here at all.\"
C
But about that time, he got started to preach,
G
And he looked straight down at me.
C F
He told ev'rybody how mean that I was,
C G C
He didn't talk like he thought much of me.
C
I sat in my seat just thinkin' it o'er
G
And then they all started to pray
C F
The fire fell from heaven, I fell to the floor
C G C
I prayed there and God had his way.
