Small Town Preacher

Verse 1
Turn the light on in the porch, I'm comin' home a little late / Brother Peterson took ill, and he's needin' a little faith /

So I won't be home in time / to kiss the little ones goodnight

Verse 2
Crawled in bed at half past three, just hopin' for a little sleep / Elder Jacobs rang the phone with a need that wouldn't keep /

We prayed for God's will to be done, until I saw the risin' sun //

Chorus 1
I wonder if I make a difference, cause sometimes it's hard to see / How God could use a small town preacher, like me (like me)//

Verse 3
Sister Mosely plays the organ, it's another Wednesday night / At the dinner after meetin', there's always apple pie /

Nothin' much here that is new / there must be more that I could do //

Chorus 1
I wonder if I make a difference, cause sometimes it's hard to see / How God could use a small town preacher, like me (like me)//

Bridge
I'm just one man and there's so many needs / I preach (I preach), I pray (I pray), sometimes it seems like nothin's changed / Lord, am I getting through? //

Verse 4
Found a scrapbook in my study with a ribbon and a note / Looks like all my congregation just wanted me to know /

The little things I thought were small / turns out they mattered most of all / /

Chorus 2
Now I know I've made a difference, and it's a miracle to see / How God could use a small town preacher…like me (like me) //

End
Turn the light on in the porch, I'm comin' home a little late
