They Tore The Old Country Church Down

J. C. Fralix

[Chorus]
Oh, they tore the old country church down
Built a big new church way uptown
With the steeple so high it reaches to the sky
And pride has slipped in where love should have been

[Verse 1]
Oh, I long just once more to enter the door
Of that little humble church in the dell
Where God's spirit fell and he saved my soul from hell
In that little humble church over there

[Chorus]
Oh, they tore the old country church down
Built a big new church way uptown
With the steeple so high it reachеs to the sky
And pride has slipped in whеre love should have been

[Verse 2]
They no longer kneel and pray in the old fashioned way
They just stand up there so very tall and proud
They don't sing about the cross or the blood that Jesus lost
In that big big big church way uptown

[Chorus]
Oh, they tore the old country church down
Built a big new church way uptown
With the steeple so high it reaches to the sky
And pride has slipped in where love should have been

[Verse 3]
There's nothing wrong with that church uptown
It's the members that let God down
If they'd humble themselves and pray they would hear from God today
In that big new church way uptown

[Chorus]
Oh, they tore the old country church down
Built a big new church way uptown
With the steeple so high it reaches to the sky
And pride has slipped in where love should have been
Oh, they tore the old country church down
