Testo The Church I Grew Up In - Live - Tasha Cobbs Leonard
Testo della canzone The Church I Grew Up In - Live (Tasha Cobbs Leonard), tratta dall'album Hymns (Live)
There's a little, white church in Georgia
With the steeple still attached
When all those cars drive by
They don't know what they just passed
No fancy signs, one service time
And the doors always unlocked
It's the first place that I saw the hand of God
You couldn't tell me there wasn't healing in those walls
You couldn't tell me angels didn't walk those halls
On a Wednesday night or Sunday morning
We didn't have much, but Jesus loved it
If you wanna know why I am the way I am
It's the church I grew up in
There's tear stains still in the carpet
Communion in the back
And none of us were perfect
But we all tried our best
The mothers' prayers still in the air
For the ones who've walked away
And the only thing that kept us
Was God's grace
You couldn't tell me there wasn't healing in those walls
You couldn't tell me angels didn't walk those halls
On a Wednesday night or Sunday morning
We didn't have much, but Jesus loved it
If you wanna know why I am the way I am
It's the church I grew up in
From wedding vows to funerals
The church bells, they still ring
It's where l learned the gospel
And my mom taught me to sing
And you can try to tell me
The church isn't alive today
But I know that it is
So I'll tell my kids
There's still healing in these walls
There's angels dancing down these halls
If it's Wednesday night or Sunday morning
We don't need much 'cause Jesus loves it
If you wanna know where my history began
If you wanna know why I am the way I am
It's the church I grew up in
God's church is still alive today, oh
His power is still here
His power is still here
And you can try to tell me
The church isn't alive today
But I know that it is
And I'll keep telling my kids
There is healing in these walls
There's angels dancing down these halls
If it's Wednesday night or Sunday morning
You don't need much 'cause Jesus Loves it
If you wanna know where our history began
If you wanna know why we are the way we are
It's the church that we're all in
