Country Church, Country People (Demo) Songtext / Lyric

Last Sunday there was preaching, we all went out to hear

The little church was crowded, the right and poor were there.

It was a splendid sermon, the singing full and free.



Country church, country people

With their eyes upon the Lord

Built a church with a steeple

As a place to hear His word.

You can live and die in the same small town

But the Lord spreads his love all around.



The choir was dressed in glory, their voices dressed in love

The music told the story of God who sent his son

How Jesus came from heaven to set the sinner free






Amazing grace how sweet the sound

That saved a wretch like me

I once was lost but now I'm found

Was blind but now I see.



The choir was finished singing and the congregation stood

While the Spirit touched and filled them with power, love and good

From God who reigns in heaven always watching every man

And guiding all his children with his kind protecting hand.



Country church, country people

With their eyes upon the Lord

Built a church with a steeple

As a place to hear His word.

You can live and die in the same small town

But the Lord spreads his love all around.
