Two coats were before me, an old and a new
I asked my sweet Master, "What must I do?"
The first coat was ugly, so tattered and worn
The other a new one, had never been worn

The first man was earthly and made from the ground
We bore all 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

This new coat it suits me and it keeps me so warm
It's good in the winter and it's 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 I put on the new
