[length: 04:57]
[00:13.00]There’s a little, white church in Georgia
[00:16.47]With the steeple still attached
[00:19.93]When all those cars drive by
[00:23.10]They don’t know what they just passed
[00:26.67]No fancy signs, one service time
[00:29.85]And the doors always unlocked
[00:33.23]It’s the first place that I saw the hand of God
[00:43.21]You couldn’t tell me there wasn’t healing in those walls
[00:50.05]You couldn’t tell me angels didn’t walk those halls
[00:56.41]On a Wednesday night or Sunday morning
[00:59.88]We didn’t have much, but Jesus loved it
[01:03.11]If you wanna know why I am the way I am
[01:08.86]It’s the church I grew up in
[01:14.73]
[01:23.98]There’s tear stains still in the carpet
[01:27.79]Communion in the back
[01:30.97]And none of us were perfect
[01:34.40]But we all tried our best
[01:37.73]The mothers’ prayers still in the air
[01:40.92]For the ones who’ve walked away
[01:44.21]And the only thing that kept us
[01:47.79]Was God’s grace
[01:50.70]You couldn’t tell me there wasn’t healing in those walls
[01:57.65]You couldn’t tell me angels didn’t walk those halls
[02:03.85]On a Wednesday night or Sunday morning
[02:07.75]We didn’t have much, but Jesus loved it
[02:10.75]If you wanna know why I am the way I am
[02:16.49]It’s the church I grew up in
[02:22.53]
[02:32.13]From wedding vows to funerals
[02:35.22]The church bells, they still ring
[02:38.43]It’s where l learned the gospel
[02:41.38]And my mom taught me to sing
[02:45.43]And you can try to tell me
[02:48.70]The church isn’t alive today
[02:51.32]But I know that it is
[02:54.63]So I’ll tell my kids
[02:58.48]There’s still healing in these walls
[03:04.97]There’s angels dancing down these halls
[03:11.25]If it’s Wednesday night or Sunday morning
[03:15.29]We don’t need much ’cause Jesus loves it
[03:18.34]If you wanna know where my history began
[03:25.07]If you wanna know why I am the way I am
[03:30.96]It’s the church I grew up in
[03:37.85]God’s church is still alive today, oh
[03:44.53]His power is still here
[03:51.45]His power is still here
[03:59.84]And you can try to tell me
[04:04.00]The church isn’t alive today
[04:08.26]But I know that it is
[04:11.57]And I’ll keep telling my kids
[04:15.31]There is healing in these walls
[04:22.08]There’s angels dancing down these halls
[04:28.65]If it’s Wednesday night or Sunday morning
[04:32.91]You don’t need much ’cause Jesus Loves it
[04:36.24]If you wanna know where our history began
[04:43.91]If you wanna know why we are the way we are
[04:50.27]It’s the church that we’re all in
