I'd Rather Be an Old-Time Christian
In this world I've tried most ev'rything, And I'm happy now to say, There is nothing like religion In the good old-fashioned way; I am walking in the old-time way, And I want the world to know, That I'd rather be an old-time Christian(Lord), Than anything I know.
I'd rather be an old-time Christian(Lord) Than anything I know, There's nothing like an old-time Christian, With a Christian love to show; I'm walking in the grand old highway, And I'm telling ev'rywhere I go, That I'd rather be an old-time Christian(Lord) Than anything I know.
There are many things I'd like to be As my journey I pursue, I have longed to be a leader Like a mortal man would do; I would like to be a millionaire, With a million to bestow, But I'd rather be an old-time Christian(Lord) Than anything I know.
I'd rather be an old-time Christian(Lord) Than anything I know, There's nothing like an old-time Christian, With a Christian love to show; I'm walking in the grand old highway, And I'm telling ev'rywhere I go, That I'd rather be an old-time Christian(Lord) Than anything I know.
All the world is bright since I got right, Now I sing and pray and shout, All my burdens have been lifted, Since the Savior bro't me out; I will tell the world both far and near, As I travel here below, That I'd rather be an old-time Christian(Lord) Than anything I know.
I'd rather be an old-time Christian(Lord) Than anything I know, There's nothing like an old-time Christian, With a Christian love to show; I'm walking in the grand old highway, And I'm telling ev'rywhere I go, That I'd rather be an old-time Christian(Lord) Than anything I know.
