We don't claim to be nothing but just sinners saved by the grace of God.
Ain't changed none, still country folk [E] are looking for that city.
I'm glad, thank God, that one of these days we're gonna find it.
And this old song's one that Daddy used to sing along whenever he'd get up and preach.
It's called the Model Church.
Well wife, I found [A] the model [E] church
And worshiped there [B] today
It made [E] me think of you, don't I
Before my hand turned grey
The faith I once thought of being
And they were years [B] ago
But [E] then I found without belief
It was not built for show
The sectioned [A] lift, the [E] sentry down
The way back I [B] was born
In [E] years that I [A] was old [E] and thin
And so that I was born
Me must have been a Christian man
He led me home, [B] we prayed
[C#] So long [E] now, old county church
Good-bye, the place I'm here
Well I wish you'd hear the singing [B]
[E] words
If I had [B] faith, for the [E] preacher said
With coming Lord, let all the people sing
Old [A] Coronation was the news
The music of [B] her voice
I [E] thought I heard [A] the [E] angel choir
Strike all their hearts of gold
Well I'll tell you why
[A] It [E] didn't be good
To sing those hymns [B] once more
I felt [E] just like some fragmentary
Who gets a glimpse of joy
I almost [A] want to lay [E] aside
This weathery [B] comfort
And [E] I could be that place before
Forever [B] on [E] the shore
Ain't changed none, still country folk [E] are looking for that city.
I'm glad, thank God, that one of these days we're gonna find it.
