- An Old Convention Song

 

We used to come from miles around
Have dinner on the ground
Underneath those old shade trees
And sing the old songs in shaped notes
In four part harmony

Like ?He Set Me Free? and ?He?ll Pilot Me?
Any ?Anywhere Is Home?
How long has it been since you heard an old convention song

I still (I still) love to hear (love to hear) those old convention songs
That I heard (that I heard) as a child (just a little child) as we sing them all day long
Like ?I?m Gonna Walk and ?Just a LittleTalk?
And ?All The Day Long?
How long has it been since you heard an old convention song

Gospel songs today have a lot to say
They lift you up when you're feeling down
Some have a country flavor, some have a modern sound
They also serve a need of planting seeds
So I know they can?t go wrong
But there is none so dear as when I hear an old convention song.

How long (how long) has it been
Since you heard ?After Awhile?
How long (how long) since you heard ?Give The World A Smile?
How long (how long) since you heard ?I?m Winging My Way Back Home?
How long has it been since you heard an old convention song
