Well, there was a time on Earth when in the books of Heaven That an Old Account was standin' for sins yet unforgiven My name was at the top there were many things below But I went unto the keeper and I settled it long ago Long ago, yes long ago (I settled it all) I said the Old Account was settled long ago And my record's clear today, he washed my sins away And the Old Account was settled long ago (tell em about it) Well the Old Account was large and growin' everyday I was always sinnin' and I never tried to pray But when I looked ahead and saw such pain and woe Well I thought I'd better get it settled, so I settled it long ago Long ago, yes long ago (I settled it all) I said the Old Account was settled long ago And my record's clear today, he done washed my sins away And the Old Account was settled long ago (tell em about it) Now sinner seek the Lord, and repent of all your sins 'Cause this He commanded if we're gonna make it in And then if you should live one hundred years below You gonna know you got it settled 'cause you settled it long ago Long ago, yes long ago (I settled it all) I said the Old Account was settled long ago And my record's clear today, he done washed my sins away And the Old Account was settled long ago (tell em about it)
