The Old Account

C
Well it was a time on earth when in 
the books of heaven

   F               C            
An old account was standing for 
D7          G7
sins yet unforgiven

   C                           
My name was at the top and many 
              C7
things below

      F             C        
But I went unto the keeper and 
  G7              C
settled it long ago


     G7                          C
Long ago (down on my knees) long ago
 (I settled it all)

Yes the old account was settled long
 G7
 ago (hallelujah)

        C                          
And the record's clear today cause 
   F              C
he washed my sins away

                        G7         
And the old account was settled 
  C
long ago

Well the old account was large and 
growing every day

    F            C             D7
And I was always sinning and I 
             G7
never tried to pray

    C                              
But when I looked ahead and saw 
              C7
such pain and woe

       F             C          
Well I went unto the keeper and 
G7              C
settled it long ago


     G7                          C
Long ago (down on my knees) long ago
 (I settled it all)

Yes the old account was settled long
 G7
 ago (hallelujah)

        C                          
And the record's clear today cause 
   F              C
he washed my sins away

                        G7

Now sinner seek the Lord repent of 
all your sins

      F                     D7    
Cause this he has commanded if you
             G7
 would enter in

    C                         
And then if you should live  a 
                     C7
hundred years below

         F               C        
Well you know you got it settled  
          G7              C
cause you settled it long ago


     G7                          C
Long ago (down on my knees) long ago
 (I settled it all)

Yes the old account was settled long
 G7
 ago (hallelujah)

        C                          
And the record's clear today cause 
   F              C
he washed my sins away
