| 作词 : Traditional | |
| Well, it was a time on earth | |
| When in the books of heaven | |
| An old account was standing | |
| For sins yet unforgiven | |
| My name was at the top | |
| And many things below | |
| But I went unto the keeper | |
| And settled it long ago | |
| Long ago, long ago(Down on my knees I settled it all) | |
| Yes, the old account was settled long ago(Hallelujah) | |
| And the record's clear today' | |
| Cause He washed my sins away | |
| And the old account was settled long ago | |
| Well, the old account was large | |
| And growin' every day | |
| And I was always sinnin' | |
| And I never tried to pray | |
| But when I looked ahead | |
| And saw such pain and woe | |
| Well, I went unto the keeper | |
| And settled it long ago | |
| Long ago, long ago(Down on my knees I settled it all) | |
| Yes, the old account was settled long ago(Hallelujah) | |
| And the record's clear today' | |
| Cause He washed my sins away | |
| And the old account was settled long ago | |
| Now sinner seek the | |
| LordRepent of all your sins' | |
| Cause this | |
| He has commanded | |
| If you would enter in | |
| And then if you should live | |
| A hundred years below | |
| Well, you know you got it settled' | |
| Cause you settled it long ago | |
| Long ago, long ago(Down on my knees I settled it all) | |
| Yes, the old account was settled long ago(Hallelujah) | |
| And the record's clear today' | |
| Cause He washed my sins away | |
| And the old account was settled long ago | |
| Long ago |
