Carry On - Babbie Mason (梅宝贝)[00:00:00]
A little old lady went to talk to her preacher[00:00:07]
This is what she had to say[00:00:11]
She said some of our members have started this carrying on[00:00:15]
And acting in a very undignified way[00:00:18]
They've been saying amen in the middle of the service[00:00:22]
Shouting out loud and it's making me nervous[00:00:26]
Preacher I've had about all I can take[00:00:30]
Please do something for heaven's sake[00:00:33]
Well the preacher thought about it[00:00:37]
For a minute or two about the way it used to be[00:00:39]
When the service just lasted for under an hour[00:00:44]
Nothing counted for eternity[00:00:48]
You see the choir used to sing and the people would stare[00:00:51]
The invitation came but the altar was bare[00:00:55]
So he said to the sister as he showed her to door[00:00:59]
I'll do something and that's for sure[00:01:03]
Well the very next sunday as he started his sermon[00:01:06]
This became his number one goal[00:01:10]
To remind the people of how it used to be[00:01:14]
Before the lord came and took control[00:01:17]
He said some of our members have started this carrying on[00:01:21]
Lifting their voices and praising the lord[00:01:25]
Others don't understand why you act this way[00:01:28]
But this is all I have to say[00:01:32]
Carry on brothers sisters carry on misses misters[00:01:35]
You see it does not matter what other folks say or do[00:01:42]
Carry on because the lord has been good to you[00:01:46]
You can praise the lord and even raise your hands[00:01:50]
Shout hallelujah and say amen[00:01:54]
The church has been quiet for much too long[00:01:58]
Brothers and sisters carry on[00:02:01]
Now the lord has opened up the windows of heaven[00:02:04]
And his glory is filling this place[00:02:08]
The spirit of the lord is moving among the people[00:02:12]
There's a smile on each and every face[00:02:16]
So let the preacher preach and let the saints respond[00:02:18]
Get behind us satan we are carrying on[00:02:23]
Carry on brothers sisters carry on misses and misters[00:02:28]
You see it does not matter what other folks say or do[00:02:35]
Carry on because the Lord has been good to you [00:02:39]
Praise the Lord praise[00:02:43]
Shout Hallelujah and say Amen [00:02:47]
The church has been quiet for much too long [00:02:50]
Brothers and sisters carry on[00:02:53]
Carry on my brothers sisters carry on misses and misters[00:02:56]
You see it does not matter what other folks say or do[00:03:04]
Carry on if the lord has been real good to you[00:03:08]
Well you can praise the lord somebody wave your hands[00:03:12]
Somebody shout Hallelujah and say amen[00:03:15]
The church has been quiet for much too long[00:03:19]
Brothers and sisters misses and misters my smile[00:03:22]
My brothers and sisters why don't you carry on[00:03:29]
