Album: Light On My Feet Ready To Fly
He gathered up his congregation
Lined them up inside his room
Then he built a little pulpit and put on his Sunday suit
Then he preached a mighty sermon
And he sang a joyful hymn
While the member sat there speechless
As he shared the word with them
At the closing of the sermon
And the alter call was held
One by one they all came forward
And down on their knees they fell
And he laid his hands upon
As he knelt with them to pray
So that not one ounce of cotton
Would see Hell on judgment day
It was a teddy bear revival
(Then the Lord looked down and smiled)
There was so much faith, love, and joy inside that little child
What a blessed day
(Oh He had the precious gift his parents never got)
It was a teddy bear revival in the church of the child of God
Sure enough the child grew older
And his audience has changed
For he grew to be a preacher
Though his message stayed the same:
"God loved you all so very much
He sent his only son"
Still he looks back and remembered
Where his preaching had begin
It was a teddy bear revival
(And the Lord looked down and smiled)
There was so much faith, love, and joy inside that little child
What a blessed day
(Oh He had the precious gift his parents never got)
It was a teddy bear revival in the church of the child of God
It was a teddy bear revival
(And the Lord looked down and smiled)
There was so much faith, love, and joy inside that little child
What a blessed day
(Oh He had the precious gift his parents never got)
It was a teddy bear revival in the church of the child of God
