In a little country church, where the spirits high
Where voices sing in harmony and the word bring joy
There's a sound so sweet, that fills the heart with peace
It's southern gospel music, a faith that never cease
(Chorus)
Oh, southern gospel music, how you make me sing
With your songs of praise and joy, my heart takes wing
Oh, southern gospel music, you lift my soul on high
Your message of salvation, brings tears to my eyes
(Verse 2)
In the old wooden pews, where folks gather round
They sing about Jesus, and the love that he found
Their voices blend together, in a heavenly choir
Singing of a hope, that never sets desire
(Chorus)
Oh, southern gospel music, how you make me sing
With your songs of praise and joy, my heart takes wing
Oh, southern gospel music, you lift my soul on high
Your message of salvation, brings tears to my eyes
(Bridge)
Through trials and tribulations, the music guides the way
It comforts the brokenhearted and brings the lost soul home
A sound that echoes through the valleys and the hills
A testament to the power of God's amazing will
(Chorus)
Oh, southern gospel music, how you make me sing
With your songs of praise and joy, my heart takes wing
Oh, southern gospel music, you lift my soul on high
Your message of salvation, brings tears to my eyes
(Outro)
So let the melody ring, in every heart and mind
Let southern gospel music, uplift all mankind
Oh, in this southern gospel, we will forever find
A peace that surpasses, all that the world can bind
