An Old Convention Song - George Younce

We used to come from miles around

Have dinner on the ground

Underneath those old shade trees

And sing the old songs in shaped notes

In four part harmony

Like he set me free

And he'll pilot me

Any anywhere is home

How long has it been since you heard

An old convention song

I still I still love to hear love to hear

Those old convention songs

That I heard that I heard

As a child just a little child

As we sing them all day long

Like I'm gonna walk

And just a little talk

And all the day long

How long has it been since

You heard an old convention song

Gospel songs today have a lot to say

They lift you up

When you're feeling down

Some have a country flavor

Some have a modern sound

They all serve a need of planting seeds

So I know they can't go wrong

But there is none so dear as when I hear

An old convention song

I still I still love to hear love to hear

Those old convention songs

That I heard that I heard

As a child just a little child

As we sing them all day long

Like I'm gonna walk

And just a little talk

And all the day long

How long has it been since

You heard an old convention song

How long has it been

Since you heard

After awhile

How long since you heard

Give the world a smile

How long since you heard

I'm winging my way back home

How long has it been since

You heard an old convention song

How long has it been since

You heard an old convention song
