He Said

He Said
 1.Once there was an old time preacher
 Who had a church on the outskirts of town
 You'd never call Him a mild-mannered teacher
 He was a shouter right down to the ground
 He had a red-letter King James Bible
 It opened up to John 3: 16
 I first heard him at a summer revival
 He rolled up his sleeves and he started to sing
 He said, you must confess your sins
 He said, you must be born again
 He preached Jesus, crucified and risen from the dead
 He said, you gotta make it right
 He said, you need to come tonight
 The spirit moved stronger with every single passage he read
 I got saved when I heard what he said
 He said! He said!
 2.Well I'm a member of that little church now
 But the preacher died a long time ago
 He was preaching on the street when God called him
 Now he's a shouting up in heaven I know
 We're still moving in the right direction
 And we're following the way that he led
 We've got that old-time preacher's conviction
 And I still remember just what he said, what he said
 He said, you must confess your sins
 He said, you must be born again
 He preached Jesus, crucified and risen from the dead
 He said, you gotta make it right
 He said, you need to come tonight
 The spirit moved stronger with every single passage he read
 I got saved when I heard what that old-time, hell-fire, brimstone preacher said
 I got saved when I heard what he said, he said
