Two Coats

Two coats were before me

An old and a new

I asked my sweet Master 

What must I do

The first one was ugly so tattered and worn

The other a new one had never been worn

I tell you the best thing I ever did do

I took off the old coat and put on the new

The first man was earthly and made from the ground

We all bore his image the whole world around

The next was my Savior from Heaven so fair

He brought me this new coat you now see me wear

I tell you the best thing I ever did do

I took off the old coat and put on the new

This new coat it suits me and keeps me so warm

It’s good in the winter and its good in the storms

My Savior has dressed me in a garment so rare

He brought me this new coat you now see me wear

I tell you the best thing I ever did do 

I took off the old coat and put on the new

I tell you the best thing I ever did do 

I took off the old coat and put on the new

I tell you the best thing I ever did do 

I took off the old coat and put on the new
