The Model Church
Recorded by J.D. Crowe
Written by Edwin O. Excell and John Yates

C F C G7
Well wife I've found a model church and worshiped there today
C F C
It made me think of the good old times before my hair was grey
F C G7
The meeting house was finer built than they were years ago
C F C
But I found out when I went in it was not built for show

F C G7
The sexton did not set me down away back by the door
C F C
He knew that I was old and deaf and saw that I was poor
F C G7
He must have been a Christian man he lead me boldly through
C F C
The long aisle of that crowded church to find a pleasant view

F C G7
I wish you'd heard the singing wife it had the old time ring
C F C
The preacher said with trumpet voice let all the people sing
F C G7
Oh Coronation was the tune the music upward rolled
C F C
I thought I heard the angel choir strike on their harps of gold

F C G7
I tell you wife it did me good to sing those hymns once more
C F C
I felt just like some wrecked marine who gets a glimpse of shore
F C G7
It made me want to lay aside this weather beaten form
C F C
And anchor in that blessed port forever from the storm

F C G7
Dear wife the toil will soon be o'er the victory soon be won
C F C
The shining strand is just ahead our race is nearly run
F C G7
We're nearing Canaan's happy shore our hopes so bright and fair
C F C
Thank God we'll never sin again there'll be no sorrow there

G7 C F
There'll be no sorrow there in heaven above where all is love
C G7 C
There'll be no sorrow there
