The Gospel Truth Songtext
von Kenny Rogers

Ain′t that the truth? Ain't that the gospel truth?
That′s what The Good Book say
Ain't that the truth? Ain't that the gospel truth?
And the truth is gonna show us the way

Lord said, "Noah, time to build you a boat
Gather creatures two by two"
Noah said, "Lord, I don′t think it will float
But I would never wanna second guess you"
Lord told David, "Go and sling you a stone
Goliath will fall over in shock"
David had the faith before it ever was thrown
He knew the Lord has to talk to that rock

Ain′t that truth?
Ain't that the truth, Ain′t that the gospel truth?
That's what The Good Book say
Ain′t that the truth? Ain't that the gospel truth?
And the truth is gonna show us the way


Jonah ended up in the belly of a whale
′Cause He didn't do what God told him to
God made it spit him out and so goes the tale
Except, "From now on, Lord I'm working for you"
"Joshua, take your horn down to Jericho
Show ′em what you think of their wall
Satan and the sinners gonna hear you blow
Then have to stand back and watch it fall"

Ain′t that truth?
Ain't that the truth? Ain′t that the gospel truth?
That's what The Good Book say
Ain′t that the truth? Ain't that the gospel truth?
And the truth is gonna show us the way

Gimme that old time religion
Gimme that old time religion
Gimme that old time religion
It′s good enough for me
It will take us all to heaven
It will take us all to heaven
It will take us all to heaven
That's good enough for me

Whoa, the Lord helps me live a life that's kind and fair
He keeps me from the devil′s clutch
He said He′d never give me more than I can bear
Sometimes I wish He didn't trust me so much


Ain′t that truth? (Ain't that truth?)
Ain′t that the truth? Ain't that the gospel truth?
That′s what The Good Book say

Ain't that the truth? Ain't that the gospel truth?
And the truth is gonna show us the way
Ain′t that the truth? Ain′t that the gospel truth?
And the truth is gonna show us the way
