I remember very few words to this song and may have some out of order, although i think they are in there somewhere...
Please search the book again
I thought my name was there
I went to church on Sunday,
though I never knelt in prayer
Please search the book again........

any help would be greatly appreciated....thanx, debbie

Hi Debbie,

The song is "Please Search the Book Again" by Jerry Goff (1975)

1.
I dreamed that I had died and gone to heaven,
I stood just outside the eastern gate;
The Man from within said, "Have you been born again,
And is your name written in the Book of Life?"

Chorus
Please search the book again; I thought my name was there!
I went to church on Sunday, tho' I never knelt in prayer;
Please search the book again; it's too late now, I know,
Please search the book again before you make me go!

2.
I told Him all the deeds that I had done,
I told Him all the trophies I had won;
But the Man said to me, "Have you been set free,
And is your name written in the Book of Life?"

Chorus

3.
And then He turned and left me standing there,
I knew it was too late now for prayer.
Oh, my sinner friend, if you want to make it in,
Your name must be in the Book of Life.

Chorus

God bless,
Steve

Thank You so much, Steve. I love this website! My dad and I sing in church occassionally and this song came back to me recently, although its been years since I remember hearing it..who knows, it may be just the lyrics someone lost may need to hear to accept Christ as their Savior.....thanx again, debbie

Steve, maybe you can tell me the name of the evangelist that sang that song back in early 80's? I remember her first name being Grace. Thanks
