45. There's a Meeting Here To-Night

1 Camp meeting in the wilderness,
There's a meeting here tonight,
Don't let that sinner have no rest,
There's a meeting here tonight, come along.

Chorus:
There's a meeting here tonight, Good Lord,
there's a meeting here tonight,
I know you by your daily walk,
There's a meeting here tonight.

2 That gambling man just cannot stand,
There's a meeting here tonight,
We're goin to drive old Satan from this land,
There's a meeting here tonight, come along. [Chorus]

3 Camp meeting here, camp meeting there,
There's a meeting here tonight,
I believe to my soul they're ev'rywhere,
There's a meeting here tonight, come along. [Chorus]

4 When this old soul takes wings and flies,
There's a meeting here tonight,
It's goin't join that meeting in the skies,
There's a meeting here tonight, come along. [Chorus]
