Everybody's got an opinion and a brand new way to pray,
Every week another novelty to lead the flock astray.
But Jim just closed his eyes and reached back down through time —
And pulled up something ancient and something so sublime!
Chorus
Because the truth was given once and never needs improving,
No synod and no committee ever put out that flame!
From the Shenandoah valley to the Gulf of Mexico —
The Faith that fed the martyrs is the only way to go!
Verse 2
He opened up the catechism on the kitchen table wide,
Let the old familiar answers fill the emptiness inside.
No cleverness could match it and no novelty came close —
Just the truth delivered simply matters to him most!
Chorus
Because the truth was given once and never needs improving,
No synod and no committee ever put out that flame!
From the Shenandoah valley to the Gulf of Mexico —
The Faith that fed the martyrs is the only way to go!
Enjoy!
