There's a church in the valley
No lovelier spot in the dale
No place is so dear to my childhood
As the little brown church in the vale
Oh, come to the church in the wildwood
To the trees where the wildflowers blow
Where the parting hymn will be chanted
We will weep by the side of the tomb
Oh come, come, come, come, come
To the church in the wildwood
Oh come to the church in the vale
No place is so dear to my childhood
As the little brown church
How sweet on a clear Sabbath morning
To listen to the clear ringing bell
Its tone so sweetly our calling
Oh, come to the church in the vale
From the church in the valley
When day fades away into night
I would fain from this spot
wing my way to the mansions of life
Oh, come, come, come, come,
come to the church in the wildwood
Oh, come to the church in the field
No spot is so dear to my childhood
As the little brown church in the vale
No spot is so dear to my childhood
As the little brown church in the vale
