"First Church Of God" lyrics

"First Church Of God"

[Chorus]
He split the First Church of God
He split the First Church of God
The old people said it would never be done
But he split the First Church of God

[Verse 1]
He preached a sermon in his jeans
He preached a sermon in his jeans
He preached that holy book with that casual fashion look
He split the First Church of God

[Chorus]
He split the First Church of God
He split the First Church of God
The old people said it would never be done
But he split the First Church of God

[Verse 2]
Then he took the hymnals from the pews
Good Lord, he took the hymnals from the pews
And he made the people sing from an elevated screen
He split the First Church of God

[Chorus]
He split the First Church of God
He split the First Church of God
The old people said it would never be done
But he split the First Church of God

[Verse 3]
And he brought in a rock n' roll band
Good Lord, he brought in a rock n' roll band
And he put the choir behind a guitar amplifier
He split the First Church of God

[Chorus]
He split the First Church of God
He split the First Church of God
The old people said it would never be done
But he split the First Church of God

[Verse 4]
Then he hired his wife upon the staff
Good Lord, he hired his wife upon the staff
He put her on the pave and it was not like Tammy Faye
He split the First Church of God

[Verse 5]
And he passed that offer plate around
Good Lord, he passed that offer plate around
He passed that plate around and said lay your money down
He split the First Church of God

[Chorus]
He split the First Church of God
He split the First Church of God
The old people said it would never be done
But he split the First Church of God

[Outro]
The old people said it would never be done
But he split the First Church of God
