[Lyrics]
To Uncle Sammie Hiatt my friend and the actual subject of this song
"He Sang in the Old Church Choir"
DICK B. BRUUN
Writer of "Thelma", "I'll Be Back", etc.
[1] 'Twas Easter Sunday morning To the village I had gone; My boyhood home where lived the ones I loved; At the church the preacher spoke the word, The choir sang sweetly, too, And in their midst an old man sang The old songs good and true; His voice was sweet and tender, I seem to hear him yet Sing again an old refrain I never will forget.
[2] So here's a simple lesson Of the good that we can do To help our fellow men along the way; Just a word of cheer to those we meet May ease an aching heart, A song may save two souls that otherwise might drift apart. Still in my mem'ry [memory] lingers That singer and his song Sweet and low, so long ago, To hear his voice I long
CHORUS
How he sang in the old church choir Olden songs, golden songs of a bygone day. Sweet songs of gladness, songs, too, of sadness That carried me far, far away, And I longed in my soul for that heavenly goal That he sang of so sweetly in those songs: "Lead Kindly Light Amid th’ encircling gloom" And "Rock of Ages cleft for me." Those were the songs, the old golden songs That he sang in the old church choir.
