tony logue - blood river baptist church lyrics
i was twelve years old and scared to death sitting on a hardwood pew
when the preacher said if you ain’t his then h+ll’s fire waits for you
he was teaching bout a savior who paid sins heavy price
at the blood river baptist church that day i found new life
[chorus]
i said goodbye to the old ways h+llo to the new
lord you know i changed my ways i’ll be true to you
i don’t want to walk alone down some winding road of sin
at the blood river baptist church that day, i was born again
well it didn’t take long til a girl was all that i had on my mind
to the parking lot of that old church we’d steal away at night
we were learning how to worship but not in things abovе
at the blood river baptist church we wеre learning how to love
[chorus]
i said goodbye to the old ways h+llo to the new
girl you know i changed my ways i’ll be true to you
she said baby hold my close let me feel your skin on mine
at the blood river baptist church those stars oh how they shine
the same girl that stole my world the same old hardwood pew
the blood river baptist church is where we said i do
the old preacher gave his spill and that was all she wrote
she looked like an angel in a wedding dress and carhart coat
[chorus]
and i said goodbye to the old ways h+llo to the new
girl i swear from this point on it’s only me and you
this i vow before the father and the son
at blood river baptist church that day the two were one
now the round is in the chamber the wreath’s on the clay
the blood river baptist church graveyard is cold and grey
two rings lay on a stone as i lay next to you
my last prayer is empty lord forgive me for what i do
[chorus]
goodbye to the old ways h+llo to the new
i’ve spent my last night alone i’m coming home to you
i pray when i cross over the savior’s face i see
i pray when i make that gate you’re waiting there for me
