D
It was a stylish congregation you
could see they had been around
G
And they had the biggest pipe
organ of any church in town
D
But over in the amen corner of that
church sat Ol' Brother Ire
G
And every Sunday he insisted
D
G
on singing in the choir
His voice was cracked and broken
C
age had touched his vocal chords
G
And nearly every Sunday he would get
behind and miss the words
Well, the choir got so flustered the church was told,
then fine
D
G
Brother Ire must quit his singing
or the choir is going to resign
So the pastor appointed a committee I
C
think it was three or four
G
They got in their big fine car
D
G
drove up to Ire's door
They found the choirs great trouble
D
G
sitting there in a big armed chair
D
G
The summers golden sum beam
lay up on his snow- white hair
D

D
Said York, "We're here with
the Vestry's approbation
G
To discuss a little mater that
D
G
affects the congregation
is interfering with the choir
G
So if you will just lay out are you listening,
D
G
Brother Ire?
The old man raised his
head a sign he did hear
C
G
And on his cheek the three men
D
G
caught the glitter of a tear
His feeble hands pushed back the
locks as white as silky snow
D
And he answered the committee
G
in a voice both soft and low
"I wonder if beyond the tide
C
that is breaking at my feet
G
In that far off heavenly temple
where my Master I shall meet
D
G
D
I wonder if when I try to sing the
songs of God up higher
G
Will they kick me out up there for singing
D
G
D
in Heavens Choir?"
A science filled the room the old man
The committee went on back to town,
D
but Brother Ire was dead.
G
The choir missed him for awhile,
D
G
but it soon forgot
D
G
A few church goers watched the door,
but the old man entered not
C
G
From far away his voice is sweet now
D
G
and he sings his hearts desires
D
G
C
D
Where there are no committees
G
D
G
and no fashionable choirs

Rock of age's clef for me let me
