Old Camp Meetin' Time Lyrics - Carl Smith

Long ago when but a boy at old camp meetin' time 

How my heart would beat with joy to hear the old bells chime 

Callin' all the saints of God into the house of prayer 

Oh such prayin' singin' shoutin' for the Lord was there 

How I like the old time preachin' prayin' shoutin' singin' 

How I like the old time readin' of God's words 

How I like to hear that glory hallelujah singin' 

How I like the old time worship of the Lord 

[ guitar ] 

How I like the old time... 

[ guitar ] 

Preachin' in them good ole days was still the world acclaim 

Preachin' for the souls of men and not for wordly fame 

Under such old fashion preachin' sinners knelt and pray 

And the Lord would save them in that good ole fashion way 

How I like the old time...
