The Little Brown Church in the Vale Lyrics

(Words and Music by William S. Pitts)

There's a church in the valley by the wildwood

no lovelier place in the dale

No spot is so dear to my childhood

than the little brown church in the vale

CHORUS

O come, come, come, come,

come to the church in the wildwood

O come to the church in the dale

No spot is so dear to my childhood

than the little brown church in the vale

How sweet on a clear Sabbath morning

to list to the clear ringing bell

Its tones so sweetly are calling

O come to the church in the vale

CHORUS

From the church in the valley by the wildwood

when day fades away into night

I would fain from this spot of my childhood

Wing my way to the mansions of light

CHORUS
