Sunday Morning Mountain Gospel Music 218

The Old Country Church sung by Hank Williams, Sr. and Little Jimmy Dickens





There's a place dear to me, where I'm longing to be
With my friends at the old country church
There with mother we went and our Sundays we spent
With our friends at the old country church

Precious years of memories
Oh, what joy they bring to me
How I long once more to be
With my friends at the old country church

How I wish that today all the people would pray
Like we prayed in that old country church
If they'd only confess, Jesus surely would bless
As He did in that old country church

Precious years of memories
Oh, what joy they bring to me
How I long once more to be
With my friends at the old country church...........


Songwriters: J.W. Vaughn

Where the Soul Never Dies sung by Hank Williams, Sr.




To Canaan's land I'm on my way
Where the soul never dies
My darkest nights will turn to day
Where the soul never dies

No sad farewells
No tear-dimmed eyes
Where all is peace, joy and love
And the soul never dies

A rose is blooming there for me
Where the soul never dies
And I shall spend Eternity
Where the soul never dies

No sad farewells
No tear-dimmed eyes
Where all is peace, joy and love
And the soul never dies

I'm on my way to that fair land
Where the soul never dies
Where there will be no parting hand
And the soul never dies

No sad farewells
No tear-dimmed eyes
Where all is peace, joy and love
And the soul never dies...........

Hank Williams, Sr.

I Saw the Light, 1948





I wandered so aimless life filled with sin
I wouldn't let my dear Savior in
Then Jesus came like a stranger in the night
Praise the Lord I saw the light

I saw the light I saw the light
No more darkness no more night
Now I'm so happy no sorrow in sight
Praise the Lord I saw the light

Just like a blind man I wandered along
Worries and fears I claimed for my own
Then like the blind man that God gave back his sight
Praise the Lord I saw the light

I saw the light I saw the light
No more darkness no more night
Now I'm so happy no sorrow in sight
Praise the Lord I saw the light

I was a fool to wander and a-stray
For straight is the gate and narrow the way
Now I have traded the wrong for the right
Praise the Lord I saw the light

I saw the light I saw the light
No more darkness no more night
Now I'm so happy no sorrow in sight
Praise the Lord I saw the light
