No lovelier spot in the dale
No place is so dear to my childhood
As the little brown church in the vale
(Oh, come, come, come, come)
Come to the church by the Wildwood
Oh, come to the church in the vale
No spot is so dear to my childhood
As the little brown church in the vale
How sweet on a clear Sabbath morning
To listen to the clear ringing bells
Its tones so sweetly are calling
Oh, come to the church in the vale
(Oh, come, come, come, come)
Come to the church by the Wildwood
Oh, come to the church in the vale
No spot is so dear to my childhood
As the little brown church in the vale
There, close by the church in the valley
Lies one that I loved so well
She sleeps, sweetly sleeps, 'neath the willow
Disturb not her rest in the vale
(Oh, come, come, come, come)
Come to the church by the Wildwood
Oh, come to the church in the vale
No spot is so dear to my childhood
As the little brown church in the vale
There, close by the side of that loved one
'Neath the tree where the wild flowers bloom
When farewell hymns shall be chanted
I shall rest by her side in the tomb
(Oh, come, come, come, come)
Come to the church by the Wildwood
Oh, come to the church in the vale
No spot is so dear to my childhood
As the little brown church in the vale
There's a church in the valley by the Wildwood No lovelier spot in the dale No place is so dear to my childhood As the little brown church in the vale (Oh, come, come, come, come) Come to the church by the Wildwood Oh, come to the church in the vale No spot is so dear to my childhood As the little brown church in the vale How sweet on a clear Sabbath morning To listen to the clear ringing bells Its tones so sweetly are calling Oh, come to the church in the vale (Oh, come, come, come, come) Come to the church by the Wildwood Oh, come to the church in the vale No spot is so dear to my childhood As the little brown church in the vale There, close by the church in the valley Lies one that I loved so well She sleeps, sweetly sleeps, 'neath the willow Disturb not her rest in the vale (Oh, come, come, come, come) Come to the church by the Wildwood Oh, come to the church in the vale No spot is so dear to my childhood As the little brown church in the vale There, close by the side of that loved one 'Neath the tree where the wild flowers bloom When farewell hymns shall be chanted I shall rest by her side in the tomb (Oh, come, come, come, come) Come to the church by the Wildwood Oh, come to the church in the vale No spot is so dear to my childhood As the little brown church in the vale Explain Request ×
