- - It's Real (https://www.apostolicfriendsforum.com/showthread.php?t=30049)

Perhaps I have the title wrong but the lyrics I'm requesting is from an old church hymn.

The part that I sorta remember is

It's real It's real
I know I know it's real
This Pentecostal blessing
I know I know it's real

Could someone please help me with the
lyrics to this song? I sure would appreciate it.

Thanks in advance,
MIKE

You have to scroll through 5 pages to get all the words.

thanks for all the links, especially enjoyed the guy singing.

Did the best I could to get the words from Scribd but I still left out a few words if
someone could give it once over to see what I am missing?

ooops forgot to put the words....lemme try again.

Its real, Its real,
Praise God
I know Its real
This Pentecostal blessing
And I know, I know
Its real
Its real, Its real,
Praise God
I know Its real
This Pentecostal blessing And I
know, I know
Its real

When first I heard of Pentecost, I
thought it
was a shame
That such an unholy teaching
Should be
taught in
Jesus' name
But they said t'was in the Bible
and I did not
want to doubt
So I went around to see them And to
hear them sing and shout

Some were shouting hallelujah
Some were
prostrate on the floor
Some were dancing in the Spirit
From the pulpit to the door
Some were shaking
some were quaking
As one
by one they fell
When all at once a brother

I sat a little longer Wondering
what my folks
would say
I knew they didn't like it in That
Pentecostal way
For just a night or two ago I
heard my old dad
say
That when he got religion He
didn't get it that way

I started to the alter With
hunger in my soul
I didn't care for people For
the Spirit made me
go
I raised my hands to Heaven And
I let Him
have His way
And praise the Lord He filled
in that good ol' fashioned way!

I'll see if it is in our song books at church. The ones we never use anymore!

I've heard it with a few minor adjustments

Its real, Its real,
I know Its real
This Pentecostal blessing
And I know, I know
Its real
Its real, Its real,
I know Its real
This Pentecostal blessing And I
know, I know
Its real

Some were prostrate on the floor
Some were dancing in the Spirit
From the pulpit to the door
Some were shaking
some were quaking
As one by one they fell
When all at once a brother shook-I thought he'd had a spell!

For just a night or two ago I

That when he got religion He

I didn't care who saw me
For the Spirit made me

I raised my hands to Heaven And
I let God have His way

Thanks for posting an update. This song has been on my mind for sometime and could not find it anywhere else. Once again this site has come through for me!

I tried to find a YouTube video of "It's Real" but couldn't.

This is another old timey song.
I remember Bro. and Sis. Paslay singing this on a Sunday night back in the nineteen fifties in Cincinnati, OH
