Something Got a Hold of Me
Lyricist:Alvin Carter
At first when I heard of some people who claim That the old time religion was real I said, 'I'll go down, take a look at the crowd For just that weak-minded I feel'
I walked up the steps and I peeked in the door But the Devil said, 'Don't you go in!' But I said, 'It won't hurt me I'll just step inside And set as far back as I can'
But something got a hold of me, praise God Yes something got a hold of me I went there to fight but I'll tell you that night God certainly got a hold of me
They sang like they meant it, they all clapped their hands I said, 'Its commotion, thats all' When they get down to pray, I'll just get up and leave For I don't wanna be seen here at all

I sat in my seat just thinkin' it o'er And then they all started to pray The fire fell from Heaven, I knelt to the floor I prayed there and God had His way
And now then I know that I don't need to doubt For I got an experience that night I will never forget it as long as I live I found that salvation was right
But something got a hold of me, praise God Yes something got a hold of me I went there to fight but I'll tell you that night God certainly got a hold of me
