Verse 1
E
It was a stylish congregation
A
E
you could see they'd been around
A
E
And they had the biggest pipe
organ of any church in town
A
E
But over in the Amen Corner of
that church sat Brother Ayer
B
And he insisted every Sunday
E
on singing in the choir
B
His voice was cracked and broken age
had touched his vocal chords
E
And nearly every Sunday he'd
get behind and miss the words
B
Well the choir got so flustered
the church was told in fine
That Brother Ayer must stop his singing
E
or the choir was going to resign
So the pastor appointed a committee
I think it was three or four
A
And they got in their big fine cars
E
and drove up to Ayer's door
They find the choir's great trouble
sittin' there in an old arm chair
And the summer's golden sunbeams
lay upon his snow white hair
Said York we're here dear Brother
A
with the vestries approbation
E
To discuss a little matter that
A
affects the congregation
E
Now it seems that your voice
has interfered with the choir
So if you'll just lay out are you
listening Brother Ayer
B
E
The old man raised his head
a sign that he had hear
B
And on his cheek the three men caught
the glitter of a tear
His feeble hands pushed back
E
the locks as white as silky snow
And he answered the committee
B
in a voice both soft and low
I wonder if beyond the tide
E
that's breaking at my feet
In that far off heavenly temple where
A
my Master and I shall meet
E
Yes I wonder if when I try to sing
the song of God up higher
A
E
I wonder if they'll kick me out
B
E
of there for singing in heaven's choir
A silence filled the little room
B
and the old man bowed his head
The committee went on back to town
but Brother Ayer was dead
E
The choir missed him for awhile
but he was soon forgotten
B
A few church goers watched the door
E
but the old man entered not
Far away his voice is sweet and
he sings his heart desire
A
E
Where are there no church committees
and no fashionable choirs
A

Let me hide my self in Thee
