All four ladies chain the ring, turn the girl and hear me sing
You chain the lady back and turn 'em again
You gonna join hands circle, to the left around you go
Allemande left, come on and weave the ring
Give me that old time religion, give me that old time religion
Swing your lady there and you promenade
Give me that old time religion, give me that old time religion
Give me that old time religion, well, it's good enough for me

Heads you promenade halfway you go
Come down the middle and then you pass thru
Separate around two, hook on the end, make a line
Now make a ring and hey, circle to the left
The sides come in and star thru, you pass thru
You swing the corner lady there and you promenade
Give me that old time religion, give me that old time religion
Give me that old time religion, well, it's good enough for me

Sides face grand square
Some bright mornin' when this life is over, I'll fly away
To a home on God's celestial shores, I'll fly away
Now all ladies promenade inside the ring
Swing your man and promenade
When I die, hallelujah by and by
I'll fly away

Sides promenade travel halfway around
Down the middle and you pass thru, separate around two
Hook on to the end, you'll have a line, now make a ring
You join hands, circle to the left you know
The heads star thru, you pass thru and corner swing
You swing the little girl and you promenade
When I die, hallelujah by and by
I'll fly away

Four men promenade go walking one time
You get back home and swing that girl you find
Join hands, circle to the left around you go
Then allemande left and weave (put your hands up high)
Well, I saw the light, Lord, I saw the light
No more darkness, no more night
Now I'm so happy, no sorrow in sight
Hallelujah! I saw the light
