Royal Telephone Lyrics & Chords

Frederick M. Lehma

Verse 1

(D)Central’s never “busy,” (G)always on the (D)line;

(A)You may hear from heaven (G)almost any (D)time;

’Tis a royal service, free for one and (G)all;

When you get in (D)trouble, give this (A)royal line a (D)call.



Chorus

(D)Telephone to glory, oh, what joy (A)divine!

I can feel the current moving on the (D)line,

Built by God the Father for His loved and (G)own,

We may talk to (D)Jesus through this (A)royal tele(D)phone.



Verse 2

There will be no charges, telephone is free,

It was built for service, just for you and me;

There will be no waiting on this royal line,

Telephone to glory always answers just in time.



Chorus

Telephone to glory, oh, what joy divine!

I can feel the current moving on the line,

Built by God the Father for His loved and own,

We may talk to Jesus through this royal telephone.



Verse 3

Fail to get the answer, Satan’s crossed your wire,

By some strong delusion, or some base desire;

Take away obstructions, God is on the throne,

And you’ll get your answer through this royal telephone



Verse 4

If your line is “grounded,” and connection true

Has been lost with Jesus, tell you what to do:

Prayer and faith and promise mend the broken wire,

Till your soul is burning with the Pentecostal fire. [Refrain]



Verse 5

Carnal combinations cannot get control

Of this line to glory, anchored in the soul;

Storm and trial cannot disconnect the line,

Held in constant keeping by the Father’s hand divine.
