The Church Needs Good Deacons

歌詞

Oh Stephen, he was a real good deacon And he was a man that did love Christ He was really full of the Holy Ghost And he did very thing that's right Right now, we have some real good deacons Then we have some deacons ain't right All on earth some of them is fittin' for Is to run around at night A deacon he must be a clean man And he must live a mighty smooth life He must have his children under good control And be the husband of one wife But instead of being the deacon That he really ought to be He won't put up with one honest woman He will try to live with two or three A man like that he's in a bad fix And he thinks he's doin' very well And the devil is got him by the hand Just a-leadin' him all in Hell You read Paul's letter to Timothy Those words doth profit very much If a man knows not how to take care of his own household Well, he cannot care for God's church
