The Nelons - I'm Gonna Serve the Lord Today Lyrics

My mama told me
While sitting on her knee
"Someday you're gonna be a man
So, boy, start now
And you'll make it somehow
Take this book and read God's plan"

I trust God for my tomorrows
I'm gonna serve the Lord today
I'll try to walk upright
And stay in the light
To me, there ain't no other way

One day I was kneeling
I got that old-time feeling
And God came in to stay
Every day I'm walking
And every day I'm talking
About the old-time way
I'm looking for Him any moment
He's gonna take me home to stay
I trust God for my tomorrows
I'm gonna serve the Lord today

Wake up every morning
Kneel down and pray
Start your day out right
And when the sun goes down
And you start to rest
You can go to sleep at night

One day I was kneeling
I got that old-time feeling
And God came in to stay
Every day I'm walking
And every day I'm talking
About the old-time way
I'm looking for Him any moment
He's gonna take me home to stay
I trust God for my tomorrows
I'm gonna serve the Lord today

I trust God for my tomorrows
I'm gonna serve the Lord today

Gonna serve my Jesus
Gonna serve my Jesus
Gonna serve the Lord today
