Thread Name: Origin: Gideon's Band (Al Hopkins & Buckle Busters
Subject: Gideon's Band (Hopkins) for Church
Had a little car trip today; started making up new verses to this, to use in closing our Saturday Night church service from time to time... what I will do is put just the chorus on a songsheet, and then sing the verses for the people to follow-- then zap in the punchline and they can laugh while singing the chorus all over again!

We've sung our songs and said our prayers
We've sung our songs and said our prayers
We've sung our songs and said our prayers
And laughed away our worldly cares....

We heard the Word and shared the Cup
We heard the Word and shared the Cup
We heard the Word and shared the Cup
And had our spirits lifted up....

O come to church each Saturday Night,
O come to church each Saturday Night,
O come to church each Saturday Night,
Where no one there is wrapped too tight....

Have you ever seen people walking while they're still tapping their toes? Gves a very bouncy step; seen it often after our service! *G*
