As a child I loved to sing
And play piano too
I loved to sing the hymns
The old ones and the new
Then Southern Gospel came along
And oh how sweet the sound
I started traveling on a bus
I've seen so many town
I'd see the people stand each night
To praise and clap their hands
You could really feel his presence
The feeling was so grand
As I look back upon those days
Where many souls were won
I'm thankful that the Lord chose me
And let me sing God's songs
