LONG AGO IN GRANDMA’S DAY
EVERY BODY KNEW TO PRAY
THEY’D STAY ON THEIR KNEES TILL THEY FELT
THE TOUCH FROM THE MIGHTY STRONG HAND
THEN THEY’D STAND UP AND SAY
I FELT THE BURDENS ROLL AWAY
IF YOU’RE HERE YOU UNDERSTOOD
SOME BODY SAY AMEN
CHORUS :
SOME BODY SAY AMEN SOME BODY SAY AMEN
IF YOU’VE BEEN BLESSED BY GOD
LET ME SEE YOU LIFT YOUR HANDS
JOY BELLS IN YOUR HEART START RINGING
WHEN THE PRAISES YOU START SINGING
SHOUT IT OUT AND THEN AGAIN
SOME BODY SAY AMEN
IF THE LORD’S BEEN GOOD TO YOU
IF YOU WANT TO PRAISE HIM A NEW
IT’S TIME YOU GOT TO LET HIM KNOW
GO AHEAD AND LIFT YOUR HANDS
IF THE SAINTS WILL OFFER PRAISE
IT MAKES THE DEVIL FLEE AWAY
IF YOUR HERE AND YOU UNDERSTAND
SOME BODY SAY AMEN
