They call me old-fashioned
because I believe
That the Bible is God’s holy Word,
That Jesus, Who lived
among men long ago,
Is divine, and the Christ of God.
My sin was old-fashioned,
My guilt was old-fashioned,
God’s love was old-fashioned, I know;
And the way I was saved
was the old-fashioned way,
Through the blood that
makes whiter than snow.
Old-fashioned, because
I believe and accept
Only what has been
spoken from heav’n;
Old-fashioned because
at the cross I was saved,
At the cross had my sins forgiv’n.
My sin was old-fashioned,
My guilt was old-fashioned,
God’s love was old-fashioned, I know;
And the way I was saved
was the old-fashioned way,
Through the blood that
makes whiter than snow.
Old-fashioned, because
I am bound to do right,
To walk in the straight narrow way;
Because I have given
my whole life to God,
Old-fashioned because I pray.
My sin was old-fashioned,
My guilt was old-fashioned,
God’s love was old-fashioned, I know;
And the way I was saved
was the old-fashioned way,
Through the blood that
makes whiter than snow.
Old-fashioned, because
I am looking above
To Jesus, my glorified Lord;
Because I believe He is coming again,
Fulfilling His holy Word.
My sin was old-fashioned,
My guilt was old-fashioned,
God’s love was old-fashioned, I know;
And the way I was saved
was the old-fashioned way,
Through the blood that
makes whiter than snow.
