The Church In the Wildwood (1857)
Words & Music by Dr. William S. Pitts (1830-1918)
[Verse 1]
G D There’s a church in the valley by the wild-wood D7 G G7 No lovelier spot in the dale C G No place is so dear to my childhood D D7 G As the little brown church in the vale
[Chorus]
G Oh, Come, Come, Come, Come D Come to the church in the wild-wood D7 G G7 Oh, come to the church in the dale C G No spot is so dear to my childhood D D7 G As the little brown church in the vale
[Verse 2]
G D How sweet on a clear, Sabbath morn-ing D7 G G7 To list to the clear ringing bell C G It’s tones so sweetly are calling D D7 G Oh, come to the church in the dale
[Chorus]
G Oh, Come, Come, Come, Come D Come to the church in the wild-wood D7 G G7 Oh, come to the church in the dale C G No spot is so dear to my childhood D D7 G As the little brown church in the vale
[Verse 3]
G D There, close by the church in the val-ley D7 G G7 Lies one that I loved so well C G She sleeps, sweetly sleeps, ’neath the willow D D7 G Dis-turb not her rest in the vale
[Chorus]
G Oh, Come, Come, Come, Come D Come to the church in the wild-wood D7 G G7 Oh, come to the church in the dale C G No spot is so dear to my childhood D D7 G As the little brown church in the vale
[Verse 4]
G D There, close by the side of that loved one D7 G G7 To trees where the wild flowers bloom C G When the farewell hymn shall be chanted D D7 G I shall rest by her side in the tomb
[Chorus]
G Oh, Come, Come, Come, Come D Come to the church in the wild-wood D7 G G7 Oh, come to the church in the dale C G No spot is so dear to my childhood D D7 G As the little brown church in the vale
[Verse 5]
G D From the church in the valley by the wild-wood D7 G G7 When day fades away into night C G I would fain from this spot of my childhood D D7 G Wing my way to the mansions of light
[Chorus]
G Oh, Come, Come, Come, Come D Come to the church in the wild-wood D7 G G7 Oh, come to the church in the dale C G No spot is so dear to my childhood D D7 G As the little brown church in the vale
