I went to church last Sunday
So I could sing and pray
But something quite
unusual
Happened on that day
Now church it started right on time
Just like it does
without a doubt
And everything was all just fine
Except when it came time to let us
out
You know the preacher he kept preaching
He told us I have one more thing to
say
Children before you think of leaving
You better think about the Judgment
Day
Now everyone got nervous
Because everyone was hungry too
And everyone was
wondering
What was the next thing he would do
And the preacher he kept preaching
He
said now I'll remind you if I may
You all better pay attention
Or I might decide to preach
all day
And now everyone was getting so hungry
That the old ones started feeling
ill
And the weak ones started passing out
And the young ones they could not sit
still
And the preacher's voice rose higher
So I snuck up on the balcony
And I crept
into the choir
And I begged them brothers, sisters, help me please
I said when I give
you a signal
I said when I raise up my hand
Won't you please join with me together
And
praise the Lord I have a plan
And the preacher he kept preaching
Long is the struggle,
hard the fight
And I prayed, Father please forgive me
And then I stood up and with all my
might
I sang
To the Lord let praises be
It's time for dinner now let's go
eat
We've got some beans and some good cornbread
And I listened to what the preacher
said
Now it's to the Lord let praised be
It's time for dinner now let's go eat
Yes
and I did give a signal
Yes and I raised up my hands
