Atlanta Singing Jesus

Atlanta in the Bible Belt I felt, so Holy 
Southern soul the gospel word I heard the Almighty
A singer sang, “Jesus forgives He lives so can you” 
Christians pray my knees bent God sent something new 

Atlanta saying Jesus we love You 
Atlanta Singing Jesus is the tune 
Atlanta praying, Jesus we love You
Atlanta Singing Jesus come back soon

Worshiping the Spirit near sincere tearing eyes 
Jesus loves is what they preach outreach grace did fly
Standing tall praising the King we sing as we stroll 
Georgia blue sky so pretty a city with a soul 

Atlanta saying Jesus we love You 
Atlanta Singing Jesus is the tune 
Atlanta praying Jesus we love You
Atlanta Singing Jesus come back soon

Hollywood and New York know Southern arms are open wide 
Friendly eyes will say hello Let peace and love be your guide 

Rolling through the Bible Belt I knelt night and day 
Everywhere the breeze blows hello when I pray 
From above turning around spellbound bent on my knee 
Going back to Atlanta Georgia glory be

Atlanta saying Jesus we love You 
Atlanta Singing Jesus is the tune 
Atlanta praying Jesus we love You
Atlanta Singing Jesus come back soon

Atlanta praying Jesus we love You
Atlanta Singing Jesus come back soon
