The Church I Grew Up In (Live)

There's a little, white church in Georgia With the steeple still attached When all those cars drive by They don't know what they just passed No fancy signs, one service time And the doors always unlocked It's the first place that I saw the hand of God You couldn't tell me there wasn't healing in those walls You couldn't tell me angels didn't walk those halls On a Wednesday night or Sunday morning We didn't have much, but Jesus loved it If you wanna know why I am the way I am It's the church I grew up in There's tear stains still in the carpet Communion in the back And none of us were perfect But we all tried our best The mothers' prayers still in the air For the ones who've walked away And the only thing that kept us Was God's grace You couldn't tell me there wasn't healing in those walls You couldn't tell me angels didn't walk those halls On a Wednesday night or Sunday morning We didn't have much, but Jesus loved it If you wanna know why I am the way I am It's the church I grew up in From wedding vows to funerals The church bells, they still ring It's where l learned the gospel And my mom taught me to sing And you can try to tell me The church isn't alive today But I know that it is So I'll tell my kids There's still healing in these walls There's angels dancing down these halls If it's Wednesday night or Sunday morning We don't need much 'cause Jesus loves it If you wanna know where my history began If you wanna know why I am the way I am It's the church I grew up in God's church is still alive today, oh His power is still here His power is still here And you can try to tell me The church isn't alive today But I know that it is And I'll keep telling my kids There is healing in these walls There's angels dancing down these halls If it's Wednesday night or Sunday morning You don't need much 'cause Jesus Loves it If you wanna know where our history began If you wanna know why we are the way we are It's the church that we're all in
