written by Bert Reinsford and Jean Villard
[Verse]
C There's a village hidden deep in the valley F C F C Among the pine trees half forlorn
And there on a sunny morning
F G7 C Little Jimmy Brown was born
[Chorus]
G7 All the chapel bells were ringing in the little village town C And the songs that they were singing was for baby Jimmy Brown E7 F Then the little congregation prayed for guidance from above C G7 Lead us not into temptation bless this hour of meditation C Guide him with eternal love
[Verse]
C There's a village hidden deep in the valley F C F C Beneath the mountains high above
And there twenty years thereafter
F G7 C Jimmy was to meet his love
[Chorus]
G7 All the chapel bells were ringing twas a great day in his life C Cause the songs that they were singing was for Jimmy and his wife E7 F Then the little congregation prayed for guidance from above C G7 Lead us not into temptation bless oh Lord this celebration C May their life be filled with love
[Verse]
C From the village hidden deep in the valley F C F C One rainy morning dark and grey
A soul winged it's way to heaven
F G7 C Jimmy Brown had passed away
[Chorus]
G7 Just a lonely bell was ringing in the little valley town C Twas farewell that it was singing to our little Jimmy Brown E7 F And the little congregation prayed for guidance from above C G7 Lead us not into temptation may his soul find the salvation F G7 C Of Thy great eternal love
