music from the gathering church – church in the wildwood lyrics

by dr. william s. pitts, 1857)
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 in the wildwood
oh, come to the church in the vale
no place is so dear to my childhood
as the little brown church in the vale.
