Once Upon a Pew ...

 

 

Once upon a pew I sat and heard the preacher ask.

We need someone to teach a class, now who will that this task?

 

But Lord, to stand before a class is one thing I can't do.

Now Bill would be the man to call, there's nothing he won't do.

I rather hear the lesson taught from her upon my pew.

 

Once upon a pew I sat and heard the preacher ask,

We need someone to lead the songs. Now who will take this task?

Then God sat down beside me there and said, "Son that's for you."

But Lord, to sing before a crowd is one thing I can't do.

Now Brother King will do the job, there's nothing he won't do.

I'd rather hear the music played from here upon my pew.

 

Once upon a pew I sat and heard the preacher ask,

We need someone to keep the door. Now who will take this task?

Then God sat down beside me there and said, "Son that's for you."

But saying things to strangers Lord, is one thing I can't do.

Now Tom can talk to strangers Lord, there's nothing he won't do.

I'd rather someone come to me and greet me on my pew.

 

As years just seemed to pass me by I heard that voice no more,

Unto one night, I closed by eyes and woke on heaven's shore.

'Twas four of us together there to face eternity.

God said, "I need just three of you to do a job for Me."

"O, Lord, I cried, "I'll do the job, there's nothing I won't do."

But Jesus said, "I'm sorry friend, in heaven there's no pew."
