Thanks songinmyheart I do appreciate this. Now if I could get you to do one more for me, I would leave you alone for a while. You found this next one for me once before and I didn't get around to printing it out, now I can't find it. Anyway the title is O What A Savior, and I don't remember who sings it. I hope this doesn't pose a problem for you.

Hi heavensent,

Thanks for sharing how heart-felt this song is to you.

Although we have lyrics to Something Got A Hold On Me in our archives

Here is Hank Williams rendition
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MgBQtJ1QaoY

At first when I heard of some people who claim
That the old time religion was real
I said I'll go down, take a look at the crowd
For just that weak-minded I feel.

I walked up the steps and I peeked in the door
But the devil said don't you go in!
But I said, it won't hurt me I'll just step inside
And I'll set as far back as I can.

But something got a hold of me (praise God)
Yes something got a hold of me
I went there to fight but I'll tell you that night
God certainly got a hold of me.

They sang like they meant it, they all clapped their hands
I said, it's commotion, that's all.
when they get down to pray I'll just get up and leave
For I don't wanta be seen here at all.

But about that time he got started to preach
And he looked straight down at me
He told everybody how mean that I was
He didn't talk like he thought much of me.

I sat in my seat just thinkin' it o'er
And then they all started to pray
The fire fell from heaven, I knelt to the floor
I prayed there and God had His way.

And now then I know that I don't need to bow
for I got an experience that night
I'll never forget it as long as I live
I found that Salvation was right

But something got a hold of me (praise God)
Yes something got a hold of me
I went there to fight, but I'll tell you that night
God certainly got a hold of me.

This song brings back a lot of wonderful memories for me. So I guess you could say it's very special to my heart. My dad who has gone on to be with the Lord, used to sing this to my older brother and me when we were just little kids growing up without a mom. So if someone could help me with it I would appreciate it more than words could tell. ( Something Got a Hold of Me. ) Hank Williams used to sing it, and the only other person I have heard it done by is Brother Freddie Clark. That is besides my dad.
