Текст песни Johnny Cash - The Old Account

The Old Account
Johnny Cash
Well it was a time on earth when in the books of heaven 

An old account was standing for sins yet unforgiven 

My name was at the top and many things below

But I went unto the keeper and settled it long ago

Long ago (down on my knees) long ago (I settled it all)

Yes the old account was settled long ago (hallelujah)

And the record's clear today cause he washed my sins away

And the old account was settled long ago 

Well the old account was large and growing every day 

And I was always sinning and I never tried to pray

But when I looked ahead and saw such pain and woe

Well I went unto the keeper and settled it long ago 

Long ago (down on my knees) long ago (I settled it all)

Yes the old account was settled long ago (hallelujah)

And the record's clear today cause he washed my sins away 

And the old account was settled long ago

Now sinner seek the Lord repent of all your sins 

Cause this he has commanded if you would enter in 

And then if you should live  a hundred years below

Well you know you got it settled  cause you settled it long ago

Long ago (down on my knees) long ago (I settled it all) 

Yes the old account was settled long ago (hallelujah)

And the record's clear today cause he washed my sins away 

And the old account was settled long ago
