I remember that old hymn, the first time I ever remember
Hearing it out was at a funeral. I was just a small boy
And it's always had a good meaning to me down through the years
There are Holiness churches all over America, and in
Appalachia thousands are scattered among the hills
These churches are related by similarities in doctrine and
Manner of worship, sharing a literal interpretation of the
Bible and an informality of approach. But each is independent
Emphasizing its own particular passages of scripture
I'm just as sure if we heard today. I tell you, that the Father, the
Son, and the Holy Ghost, these three
Are three in one and they are one
I got the Holy Ghost when I was about 13, and God was
Really good to me. And I had very much trouble, I was
A very mean fella just like... and God was good to me
