People everywhere are gathering
Comin' in the streets outside
There’s gonna' be an old time meetin'
To glory on high
Singin’ 'bout a man called Jesus
How He made the blind to see
How He's gonna come someday
For you and me

Listen to the children laughing
Runnin' through the churchyard square
Scuffin' their shoes
And pullin' the little girls' hair
While mommy and daddy are prayin'
Raisin’ their hands to God
Lookin’ for a sign from heaven
For when He's to come

The old church bell keeps ringin’ on
Thе Spirit of God, He seems so strong
When peoplе all come around
To praise the Lord
The preacher calls out to kneel in prayer
A man once dead now sheds a tear
A joyful sound is heard in the land
Singin' the old-time gospel
Praisin' the Lord above
Takin' the hand of people
Who need to know love
Tellin’ them all about Jesus
How He made the blind to see
How He's gonna come someday
For you and me

Yeah, tellin' them all about Jesus
How He made the blind to see
How He's gonna come someday
For you and me
