Two coats were before me, an old and a new

I asked my sweet master, "What must I do? "

The old coat was ugly, so tattered and torn

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

Now this coat, it suits me and it keeps me so warm

It's good in the winter, it's good in the storm

My Savior has dressed me in a garment so rare

He brought me this new coat you now see me wear

I'll tell you the best thing I ever did do

I took off the old coat and put on the new
