From the recording The Singing Preacher
Lyrics
Can I Get An Amen
We don’t need no fancy 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
We may meet high up on a hillside, or 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 here got a halo, there’s only one perfect man
He‘ll be your ticket to heaven
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)
