Every heart was moved and touched, and that old tune will sing in the memory of all who thus heard it and sung it as long as they live. EVERY HEART WAS MOVED AND TOUCHED AND EVERY OLD TUNE WILL SING IN THE MEMORY OF ALL WHO HEARD IT AND SUNG IT AS LONG AS THEY LIVE
d it’s good enough for me!_ Thus it went on, with never-wearying iteration, and each time with the refrain, more and more rhythmic and swaying: _The old-time religion, The old-time religion, The old-time religion-- It’s good enough for me!_ That it was good for the Hebrew children, that it was good for Paul and Silas, that it will help you when you’re dying, that it will show the way to heaven--all these and still other lines were sung, with a sort of wailing softness, a curious monotone, a depth of earnestness. And the man who had worked this miracle of control by evoking out of the past his memory of a meeting with two of the vanished great ones of the earth, stood before his people, leading them, singing with them, his eyes aglow with an inward light. His magic had suddenly set them into the spirit of the old camp-meeting days, the days of pioneering and hardship, when religion meant so much to everybody, and even those who knew nothing of such things felt them, even if but vaguely. THE FIERY FURNACE AND IT'S GOOD ENOUGH FOR ME THUS IT WENT ON WITH NEVER WEARYING ITERATION EACH TIME WITH A REFRAIN MORE AND MORE RHYTHMIC AND SWAYING THE OLD TIME RELIGION THE OLD TIME RELIGION THE OLD TIME RELIGION IT'S GOOD ENOUGH FOR ME THAT IT WAS GOOD ENOUGH FOR THE HEBREW CHILDREN THAT IT WAS GOOD ENOUGH FOR PAUL AND SILAS THAT IT WILL HELP YOU WHEN YOU'RE DYING AND IT WILL SHOW YOU THE WAY TO HEAVEN ALL THESE AND STILL OTHER LINES WERE SUNG WITH A SORT OF WAILING SOFTNESS A CURIOUS MONOTONE A DEPTH OF EARNESTNESS AND THE MAN WHO HAD WORKED THIS MIRACLE OF CONTROL BY EVOKING OUT OF THE PAST HIS MEMORY OF A MEETING WITH TWO OF THE VANISHED GREAT ONES OF THE EARTH STOOD BEFORE HIS PEOPLE LEADING THEM SINGING WITH THEM HIS EYES AGLOW WITH AN INWARD LIGHT HIS MAGIC HAD SUDDENLY SET THEM UPON THE SPIRIT OF THE OLD CAMP MEETING DAYS THE DAYS OF PIONEERING AND HARDSHIP WHEN RELIGION MEANT SO MUCH TO EVERYBODY AND EVEN THOSE WHO KNEW NOTHING OF SUCH THINGS FELT THEM EVEN IF BUT VAGUELY
