Seven years old, third row pew

John 3:16, something changed in me

Red letters coming off the pageFlooding my heart with amazing grace

I knew then I believed

And those roots run deep

Oh, I been through some faith-shaking hard times, yeah

But nothing′s gonna make me forget

Every one of those Sunday sermons

Every time that choir would sing

I could hear my Savior calling, telling me how much He loves me

No matter what the world throws at me

I know His word is true

It all started with heart-stirring, spirit-moving Sunday Sermons

Devil gon' try and take me out of that church

But you can′t take the church out of me

Devil gon' try and take me out of that church

But you can't take the church out of me

Gonna have my worries, well that′s part of life

But then I think of those stories ′bout what my God can do

He's still moving like He did back then

Born again people, can I get an "Amen"?

(Amen)

We′ve all seen the proof

He makes all things new

Even all those faith-shaking hard times, yeah

I never wanna stop remembering

Every one of those Sunday sermons

Every time that choir would sing

I could hear my Savior calling, telling me how much He loves me

No matter what the world throws at me

I know His word is true

It all started with a heart-stirring, spirit-moving Sunday Sermon

Devil gon' try and take me out of that church

But you can′t take the church out of me

Devil gon' try and take me out of that church

But you can′t take the church out of me

(Oh-oh, those Sunday sermons)

Jesus loves me

This I know (this I know)

For the Bible tells me so

Jesus loves me

Ain't no doubt (ain't no doubt)

So I′m gonna keep on talking about

(Oh, yeah)

Every one of those Sunday sermons

Every time that choir would sing (that choir would sing)

I could hear my Savior calling, telling me how much He loves me

No matter what the world throws at me

I know I′ll make it through

All because of those heart-stirring, spirit-moving Sunday Sermons

Devil gon' try and take me out of that church

But you can′t take the church out of me

Devil gon' try and take me out of that church

But you can′t take the church out of me

Devil gon' try and take me out of that church

But you can′t take the church out of me

Devil gon' try and take me out of that church

But you can't take the church out of me
