God Ain’t Never Had a Grandchild

C'mon, boys!

Little Johnny was raised
In a church going way
Well, he wanted to find his pew
And just 'cause Mommy
And Daddy were saved
Little Johnny thought he was too
Well, he went to revival
Had a great big Bible
Was the pride of all the youth
But God ain't never had a grandchild
Only a child will do

Well, God ain't never had a grandchild
Only a child will do
If you're not a joint heir
Then you ain't goin' there
To the land He's build for you
No cousin, niece or nephew
Will be among the chosen few
God ain't nevеr had a grandchild
Only a child will do

Now some folks say
That the guaranteed way
Is to go to a church or two
Some еven have said
That your name will be written
If you go to Sunday school
Oh, but when the roll
Is called up yonder
And the Lamb's book is open wide
Just the born-again
Blood-bought children of God
Are the only names you'll find

Well, God ain't never had a grandchild
Only a child will do
If you're not a joint heir
Then you ain't goin' there
To the land He's build for you
No cousin, niece or nephew
Will be among the chosen few
God ain't never had a grandchild
Only a child will do

God ain't never had a grandchild
Only a child will do
If you're not a joint heir
Then you ain't goin' there
To the land He's build for you
No cousin, niece or nephew
Will be among the chosen few
God ain't never had a grandchild
Only a child will do
God ain't never had a grandchild
Only a child will do

Well, God ain't never had a grandchild
Only a child will do
If you're not a joint heir
Then you ain't goin' there
To the land He's build for you
No cousin, niece or nephew
Will be among the chosen few
God ain't never had a grandchild
Only a child will do
God ain't never had a grandchild
Only a child will do
