I
TODAY THE SUN IS SO MUCH BRIGHT.
TODAY MY LOAD IS SO MUCH LIGHTER.
ONE NIGHT I WENT TO AN OLD CAMP MEETING.
I KNELT IN PRAYER GOD MET ME THERE.
HALLELUJAH
CHORUS
HE SAVED MY SOUL THAT NIGHT IN PRAYER
I CAST ON HIM MY EVERY CARE.
THE SAINTS OF GOD ALL PRAYED FOR ME.
WHEN I CRIED MY WAY TO VICTORY.
II
THE TEARS RAN DOWN MY CHEEKS THAT NIGHT
MY SOUL WAS FILLED WITH PURE DELIGHT.
I KNEW THAT I WAS BORN ANEW.
I FELT HIS POWER RUN THROUGH AND THROUGH.
HALLELUJAH
III
A SONG OF PRAISE I'LL SING FOREVER
UNTIL I CROSS OLD JORDAN'S RIVER,
I WILL NOT FEAR OF HOW I'LL FARE.
GOD SAVED MY SOUL THAT NIGHT IN PRAYER.
HALLELUJAH
