Lyrics

Can I Get An Amen

We don’t need a building with big comfortable chairs
A hard oak pew and an old guitar
And Jesus ‘l be right there

Can I get an Amen (Amen)
Can I get an Amen (Amen)
Ain’t it the truth, Lord
You know it’s the truth

You can wear a fancy suit, but boots and jeans ‘l be just fine
Come with a hole in your soul y’ need to fill
And Jesus on your mind

Can I get an Amen (Amen)
Can I get an Amen (Amen)
Ain’t it the truth, Lord
You know it’s the truth

The church ain’t bricks and mortar,
It’s flesh and bone and blood
It’s you and me, any two or three gathered in His love
A steeple on a hillside, a tent in the valley below
As long as it’s all ‘bout Jesus it’ll work out don’t you know

Can I get an Amen (Amen)
Can I get an Amen (Amen)
Ain’t it the truth, Lord
You know it’s the truth

Nobody’s wearin’ a halo, there’s only one perfect man
He‘ll be your ticket to heaven (you can get an eternal ticket to ride)
If you’ll let Jesus take your hand

Can I get an Amen (Amen)
Can I get an Amen (Amen)
Ain’t it the truth, Lord
You know it’s the truth

Can I get an Amen (Amen)
Can I get an Amen (Amen)
Ain’t it the truth, Lord
You know it’s the truth
Can I get an Amen (Amen) …
