It's Early Sunday Morning
by Franklin Price

It's early Sunday morning
The Church will open soon
Services beginning early
'Til a little after noon
When I was young we always went
Sunday morning, Sunday night
To learn the power of the Lord
And what was wrong and right
Praised his name with song and prayer
The Reverend preached the word
We left renewed and feeling good
Resolved to live by what we heard
That's how my parents lived their lives
If church was open had to go
Took us children with them
Had no option to say no
These are the memories of my youth
That's how the Lord was praised
How the family went together
That's how we kids were raised
