Words and music by Tim Bryant
Key of A
VERSE 1
When the kids were all at home in the early days
We would go on Sundays for preaching, prayer, and praise
We'd "hit the hay" on Saturday extra early too
So when it came to Sunday morn here is what we'd do
CHORUS
Jump out of bed, put on the clothes
Get the kids all ready to go
Grab the Bible, lock the door, Go to church on Sunday morn
VERSE 2
We'd hear the Sunday sermon and as the saying goes
"Preacher always managed then to step upon some toes"
The love and care when we were there would always meet the need
To live our lives for the Lord and follow where He leads
CHORUS
VERSE 3
Though the years have passed along never to return
We should try to apply the lessons that we learned
Though it's now a different time let us not forget
Going to our Father's house we never should neglect
CHORUS
