There's a church in the valley
by the wildwood
No lovelier place in the dale
No spot is so dear to my childhood
As the little brown church in the vale
Oh, come, come, come, come,
come to the church in the wild hood.
Oh, come to the church in the vale.
No spot is so dear to my childhood
as the little round church in the vale.
There close by the church in the valley
lies one that I love so well.
She sleeps, sweetly sleeps,
neath the willows,
Disturbed on her rest in the vale.
Oh, come, come, come, come,
Come to the church in the wild hood,
Oh, come to the church in the vale.
No spot is so dear to my childhood
As the little brown church
in the vale
That old smile, the sight of that love
One neath the tree where the
wildflowers bloom
When the farewell hymn shall be chanted,
I shall rest by her side in the tomb.
O come, come, come, come,
come to the church in the wild hood.
Oh, come to the church in the vale,
Come, come.
No spot is so dear to my childhood
As the little round church in the vale.
Oh, come, come, come, come,
Come to the church in
the wildwood,
Come to the church in the vale.
No spot is so dear to my childhood
As the little brown church in the vale.
