It's obvious that churches sung all different kinds of words. I'm not sure there is a 'proper' version.....LOL!
I agree totally I think I may have made up a verse or two when I was caught up in the spirit at church. I have done that on My Soul Says Yes too!!!! Actually, I do that a lot!! LOL!!! I add things that I think sound good!
And yes, I got the part about the floor coinciding with the other parts of the building - but I think our church was trying to make the song a bit less off-the-wall. (pardon the pun!!)
Long story short, it's one of those "blah blah let's make a noise and show how spiritual we are" songs.

My former pastor's wife was good at making up words.
During one shockamoo service, we were singing 'The devil don't allow no shouting around here' (yes, it's a double negative song, I never did understand that!), and she was jamming on the organ. Soon, we heard strange words.
No, it wasn't the Holy Ghost. She was singing "Momma don't allow no shouting around here".
LOL!!

ROFL... I've almost goofed many many times...
here's one: He’s God if you Love Him
He’s God if you don’t
He’s God if you serve Him,
He’s God if you won’t

WHAAA!!!! "BLAH BLAH LETS MAKE A NOISE AND SHOW HOW SPIRITUAL WE ARE!?!?!?!"
OH MY LOOOORRRDDD.
I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU'RE IN AN APOSTOLIC FORUM!
THATS WHAT WE'RE SUPPOSED TO MAKE A NOISE AND PRAISE THE LORD.
i didn't know it was so wrong to talk to the lord through a spiritual song
Ah, my pet peeve of this song being sung incorrectly, of which I have many.
The "double negative" of "don't never" makes it a "positive", meaning "don't never" becomes "always" - now, there's an erroneous statement if I ever saw one!!
Yes, I'm an English teacher in another life!!
That's called "poetic license."

Could someone please tell me where I can find the ORIGINAL words to this song? I need a soundtrack for this so it can be sung at my church. I have been to two music stores and have been told that it is no longer in circulation because it is so old. I need to know who sang it or who wrote it. Please HELP !
I thought I heard it was written by a man in California named Mackey eons ago. He had a brother named Earl Mackey. They were from California (I'm thinking Valley) then Earl settled in Oregon. I could be totally misinformed though.
