I gave my heart to Jesus When I was just a child And though it seems like yesterday It's been quite a while I called upon the Savior I bowed my head and prayed That's the best decision That I ever made
Every Sunday morning In a church outside of town Family, friends, and neighbors All would gather round When you neared the corner You could hear the church bell ring And when you reached the front door You could hear the people sing
CHORUS: He is great and greatly to be praised In a world that's changing He remains the same He is faithful He still saves Give your heart to Jesus And He'll wash your sins away
I went home last summer And I tried to find my past But all I found were withered boards And panes of broken glass I thought about that chapel As I neared the edge of town I couldn't help but wonder If it was still around
And do they sing
CHORUS
I turned the corner And I looked on down the road Deep inside I thought it would be gone But there were people everywhere The parking lot was full You know the little church Was still going strong They had a revival going on
