SUNDAY NIGHT
I love the church that Jesus bought
And know that it is right.
I go there Sunday morning
But not on Sunday night.
I love to sing the songs of God
Such worship must be right.
This I do on Sunday morning,
But not on Sunday night.
I love to hear the gospel, too
It gives me pure delight.
I hear it Sunday morning,
But not on Sunday night.
God bless our preacher, too
And give him power and might,
But put a sinner in my place,
Come Sunday night.
I'd go through mud, even snow,
And do anything that's right
To be at services Sunday morning,
But not on Sunday night.
Let others be on hand
To worship God aright.
But I want my easy chair,
And other things, Sunday night.
I know I need more strength
To keep on in the fight.
For help I come on Sunday morning,
But not on Sunday night.
Yes, all of us must die,
And I do hope I'll be doing right.
So, may I die dear Lord
On Sunday morning
and not on sunday night
[ This also applies to Wednesday evening. ]
