Little White Church

There's a little white church in the valley That stands in my memories each day And it seems I can hear the bells ringing Though I am many miles away And many times on Sunday morning The whole countryside would gather there They would all kneel down by the altar As they lifted up their voice in prayer Oh, the church in the valley, little white church Is the place I love so well Now, I'm sad and lonely, yes, I am sad and lonely For the little white church in the dell They would sing old songs of rock of ages Oh Christ, let me hide myself in thee And I know some of them are now waiting Just over the dark and stormy sea And I know that troubles are all ended Happy forever they shall be They are waiting, watching up yonder For the coming home of you and me Oh, the church in the valley, little white church Is the place I love so well I'm sad and lonely, yes, I am sad and lonely For the little white church in the dell Oh, the church in the valley, little white church Is the place I love so well Now, I'm sad and lonely, yes, I am sad and lonely For the little white church in the dell Now, I'm sad and lonely, yes, I am sad and lonely For the little white church in the dell
