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
