"Old Hymn" lyrics

There's a little white church on the edge of town
Where I grew up and I learned about
Oh, what a friend we have in Jesus

I'm older now
And I've been around
I pray to God and hope somehow
He can fix these broken pieces

This empty parking lot takes me right back
Through those bolted double doors and that stained glass

I hear the sound of a choir
Singing "Just As I Am"
Still got that same kinda power
That it had back then
There's no comfort, there's no healing
That can soothe your soul
Like the music from a steeple
Down an old dirt road
Like an old friend
Can I get an "Amen"
For an old hymn?

I can see the tears streaming down my mama's face
When we sang the last verse of "Amazing Grace"
And when the role is called up yonder
I might be sitting in my beat-up truck
Halfway gone and all tore-up
But in my heart, I'm at that altar

I hear the sound of a choir
Singing "Just As I Am"
Still got that same kinda power
That it had back then
There's no comfort, there's no healing
That can soothe your soul
Like the music from a steeple
Down an old dirt road
Like an old friend
Can I get an "Amen"
For an old hymn?

Blessed assurance
And I surrender all
I start humming along to every word
Of my God! How great thou art

His eye is on the sparrow
And that ole wildwood flower
It just takes me back to them pinewood pews
And I need Thee every hour
Oh, I still need You every hour

I hear the sound of a choir
Singing "Just As I Am"
Still got that same kinda power
That it had back then
There's no comfort, there's no healing
That can soothe your soul
Like the music from a steeple
Down an old dirt road
Like an old friend
Can I get an "Amen"
For an old hymn?

It's truer now than it's ever been
Can I get an "Amen"
For an old hymn?
