Sunday

 

A hymn we sang at church this morning.

I'm thankful that in my church we still sing all the old hymns.

The Old Account Was Settled

F M Graham

1.  There was a time, I know,

When in the book of heaven,

An old account was standing

For sins yet unforgiven;

My name was at the top

And many things below,

I went unto the Keeper,

And settled long ago.

Refrain:

Long ago, long ago,

Yes, the old account was settled long ago;

And the record’s clear today,

For He washed my sins away,

When the old account was settled long ago.

2. The old account was large,

And growing every day,

For I was always sinning,

And never tried to pay;

But when I looked ahead

And saw such pain and woe,

I said that I would settle,

And settled long ago. 

3. When at the judgment bar

I stand before my King,

And He the book will open,

He cannot find a thing;

Then will my heart be glad,

While tears of joy will flow,

Because I had it settled,

And settled long ago. 

4. When in that happy home,

My Saviors home above.

I'll sing redemptions story

And praise Him for His love;

I'll not forget that book

With pages white as snow

Because I came and settled

And settled long ago.

5. O sinner, seek the Lord,

Repent of all your sin;

For thus He has commanded,

If you would enter in;

And then if you should live

A hundred years below,

E'en here you’ll not regret it,

You settled long ago. 

A Blessed Sunday to you.
