Outside Savanna, spring of 1844 
They drove the last nail in and opened up the doors 
Jedediah Moore was the first to be baptized 
Saw him married here and buried here 
When the Yankees took his life 
I've felt the pain of people fighting their own demon 
And the presence of the power that finally freed them 
I'm a bright and shining beacon, giving shelter in the storm 
Every saint and sinner, 
I greet with open arms 
I am the rock, 
I am stained glass and stone 
The foundation that this town was built upon 
And I've been standing strong and steady all these years 
Held together by the faithful gathered here 
I've heard the words of deliverance and damnation 
And the sweet sound of redemption and salvation 
Entire congregations with their voices raised in song 
While the angels in my rafters rejoice and sing along 
I am the rock, 
I am stained glass and stone 
The foundation that this town was built upon 
And I've been standing strong and steady all these years 
Held together by the faithful gathered here 
And as long as there's a 
God above 
And people still believe, my walls will never crumble 
And I will always be 
The rock, 
I am stained glass and stone 
The foundation that this town was built upon 
And I've been standing strong and steady all these years 
Held together by the faithful gathered here 
Outside Savannah, 
Spring of 1844 
They drove the last nail in and opened up my doors
