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 |
