The Old Account

The Old Account - The Peasall Sisters

There was a time on earth

When in the books of heaven

An old account was standing

For sins yet unforgiven

My name was at the top

With many things below

But I went unto the keeper

And settled it long ago

Long ago down on my knees

Long ago I settled it all

Yes the old account was settled long ago hallelujah

And the record's clear today

'Cause he wash my sins away

And the old account was settled long ago

When in that happy home

My savior's home above

I'll sing redemption's story

And praise him for his love

I'll not forget that book

With pages white as snow

'Cause I came and settled

And settled long ago

Lon ago down on my knees

Long ago I settled it all

Yes the old account was settled long ago hallelujah

And the record's clear today

'Cause he wash my sins away

And the old account was settled long ago

Yes the old account was settled long ago
