Parton, Dolly - Preacher Tom Lyrics






Preacher Tom, your friends are many
And your good deeds are a plenty
And I know that God is plenty proud of you
Cause you've directed your attention
Towards a bright and shining mansion
God promise to the ones that pay their dues

So preacher Tom, come on preach,
Let the one of which you speak have his way
Let his precious will be done
Preacher Tom, come on
Teach of the one always in reach
Saying who so ever will let him come
Preach on preacher Tom, preach on

Your smile is like the sunshine bringing warmth and joy to others
And love controls your understanding heart
And the message that you spread is just like water to the thirsty
A beacon that keeps shining through the dark

So preacher Tom, come on preach,
Let the one of which you speak have his way
Let his precious will be done
Preacher Tom, come on
Teach of the one always in reach
Saying who so ever will let him come
Preach on preacher Tom, preach on

So preacher Tom, come on preach,
Let the one of which you speak have his way
Let his precious will be done
Preacher Tom, come on
Teach of the one always in reach
Saying who so ever will let him come
Preach on preacher Tom, preach on

    Just spoke to Preacher Tom's daughter today.My best friend and she told me all about when Dolly wrote this about her dad. I told her I would look it up. What a sweet song. Also what a sweet caring deep Christian woman he was married to. No words can do justice to the special Godly woman she was. I literally felt the spirit of the Lord. It was a honor to meet her. Any of the family who knows his daughter and her 4 kids will know who this is.Was glad to speak to my dear from today we both live in different countries now.But once neighbors and best friends forever. N**. and B. it was a true honor to know your mother. Yes she is in Heaven with her husband "Preacher Tom" looking down from Heaven watching over the children still here and all her grandchildren she loved so very much.I love you all. Your mom N** was right. This is a sweet song.
