Preachin' Prayin' Singin' Lyrics - Complete Mercury Recordings - Flatt And Scruggs

Preachin', prayin', singin' everywhere 

Shouting the praises of His loving care 

All of God's children seem to gather there 

Preachin', prayin', singin' down on the public square 

I was a stranger there intent upon my way 

But when I saw the crowd, I had the urge to stay 

I heard a welcome voice biddin' me to come and share 

Their preachin', prayin', singin' down on the public square 

Preachin', prayin', singin' everywhere 

Shouting the praises of His loving care 

All of God's children seem to gather there 

Preachin', prayin', singin' down on the public square 

I felt so much at home amid the happy throng 

That came from far and near to praise His name in song 

To lay their burdens down, forget their every care 

And have an old time meeting down on the public square 

Preachin', prayin', singin' everywhere 

Shouting the praises of His loving care 

All of God's children seem to gather there 

Preachin', prayin', singin' down on the public square 

Now as I journey on, think back on the day 

I am convinced within, these folks have found the way 

To put their hearts in song, just pray an earnest prayer 

And leave the door bells ringin' down on the public square 

Preachin', prayin', singin' everywhere 

Shouting the praises of His loving care 

All of God's children seem to gather there 

Preachin', prayin', singin' down on the public square 

Preachin', prayin', singin' down on the public square
