(AS DONE BY JAKE JESS & GLORIA GAITHER)
Jake: Sunday meeting time, back home where I was born, was a happy time-
Every Sunday morn- I remember well, the songs we used to sing-
How we made the rafters ring!
It was there I learned to pray,when I was just a kid-
Now I'm far away- I'm so glad I did!
Someday I'm going back, to hear those church bells chime,
At Sunday morning meeting time!
Gloria Speaks as the tune is softly played in the background:
If the journey of my life were a country road, the important landmarks along that road would be places of worship. The little white church with the pot bellied stove in the middle of the pews where I first heard of a land call Beulah- The village church where as a kid I heard the old saints testify to the faithfulness of God- The church on the bank where I had my first date, and the youth group would gather around the campfire after Sunday night services and sing coom-by-yah-Along my journey is the church were I promised my sweetheart I'd be faithful 'till death do us part,and the place where we brought our first baby to be dedicated to God-and at one church were I said goodbye to my precious father, and later, my mother,and because of those who came to share our grief, I knew I would not walk on alone.So when the church bell rings this Sunday nornng, I'll hear a whole chorus of bells in my heart, thankful to be in that meetin' house , Sunday morning!
Jake: 'Twas there I learned to pray, when I was just a kind-
Now I'm far away- I'm so glad I did!
Someday I'm going back, to hear those church bells chime, at Sunday morning meeting Time!
OUI?
