Wednesday Night Prayer Meeting

[Verse 1] I used to get there early when I was a boy I'd straighten the pews on a hardwood floor Daddy shook every hand as they gathered in We were prayer warriors in a world of sin We'd sing there ain't no grave going to hold me down And Sister started clappin', then somebody'd shout The spirit would rise and fill the House As the walls came tumblin' down Oh the walls came tumblin' down [Chorus] Oh the devil took a beatin' at Wednesday night prayer meetin' We heard hell fire preachin' At Wednesday night prayer meetin' Amazin' Grace fell like a flood And we all got washed in the Blood That's the way it was At Wednesday night prayer meetin' [Instrumental break] [Verse 2] Now I walk through the valley all by myself There's a road to the right and a road to the left The shadows have fallen and I'm all alone But there's still a light shinin' that leads me home I see the candles in the windows of That little church that I love I still hear 'em singin' on a Wednesday night "I'll meet you on the other side Oh I'll meet you on the other side" [Chorus] Oh the devil took a beatin' at Wednesday night prayer meetin' We heard hell fire preachin' At Wednesday night prayer meetin' Amazin' Grace fell like a flood And we all got washed in the Blood Yeah, that's the way it was At Wednesday night prayer meetin' [Tag] Yeah that's the way it was At Wednesday night prayer meetin'
