Johnny Cash Sanctified Lyrics

Sanctified Lyrics

Have a little drink

No thank you brother 

Do you want to get rich?


Don’t need it brother 

Wanna fool around 

No thank you
sister 

Ain’t you heard that old evil man within me died 

Let’s
have a party 

I ain’t going what you gonna do 

I’m gonna keep
praying 

And keep working out my salvation 



Trying to
sanctified 

No more condemnation 

Repented Jesus brought salvation


He saved me

Justification brought me safely to his side 

And
as I get to know him more 

He gives me a taste of the coming glory 

And I’m trying to whip the devil 

Trying to get sanctified 

Sanctified, sanctified 

I’m working to whip the devil 

I’m trying
to get sanctified



Don’t go to church 

Yes I’m going 

Why you read that old Bible? 

Cause I like it

Well I don’t
believe in god 

Well God bless you 

You ain’t got no argument 

For what I feel inside 

Aww, have a little fun 

That’s what I’m
having 

Life’s passing you by 

I can hardly wait 

I’ve got my
mind set on Eternity 



Trying to get sanctified 

And there’s
no more condemnation 

Repented Jesus brought salvation

He saved
me

Justification brought me safely to his side 

And as I get to
know him more 

He gives me a taste of the coming glory 

And I’m
trying to whip the devil 

Trying to get sanctified 

Sanctified,
(sanctified) 

Sanctified, sanctified 



Yes I’m trying to whip
the devil 

I’m trying to get sanctified 

Sanctified, sanctified 


Sanctified, sanctified 

I’m working out my salvation trying to get
sanctified 

Sanctified
