The Old Man Is Dead
Verse 1
Now and then an old of mine
I've not seen for some time
Will stop by and ask me
Where've I been? What's on my mind?
They wonder why I'm not drinking
And still painting this old town red.
I tell them I'm serving Jesus now
And the old man is dead.
CHORUS
The man you see before you
May look a lot the same.
I may wear the same clothes,
And have the same old name.
But you're looking on the outside
If you could see inside instead
You would see a brand new man
'Cause the old man is dead.
Verse 2
I use to live such a wicked life.
I had no hope in sight.
I was lost in the darkness
Searching for the light.
Then one night in a little church
After hearing what the preacher said
I gave my life to Jesus,
And the old man is dead
TAG
You're looking on the outside.
If you could see the inside instead,
You would see a brand new man
'Cause the old man is dead.
