Now folks, we've got something that we never had here before.
We've got a regular Baptist preacher gonna come out and do you a song.
And I mean he knows what he's doing and [G] you'll enjoy him and he's gonna do your [G] favorite, Jimmy, I believe.
So, right now let's bring out Elder Frank Newsome for a good good old gospel song.
[C#m]
Good to have you.
[Bm] Glad to be here, Ralph.
Hello to everybody out there.
[B] I'll try to sing this for you as if I can.
[B]
I looked in to the face of an old saint of God.
I thought your race had ended, your life crowned you won.
Separated for the present, but soon to live again.
And he's only gone away with a friend.
Gone [Bm] away with a friend.
Someone closer than a brother.
With somebody [B] who loves you more than children that are much more than you.
And he holds your very soul in the palm of his hand.
I let it read on my tombstone.
I've gone [G] away with a friend.
