[Verse 1]
D                                          A
There’s a church in the valley by the wild-wood,
                        D
No lovelier spot in the dale;
   G                      D
No place is so dear to my child-hood,
       A                          D
As the little brown church in the vale.
 
 
[Refrain]
D                              A
Come to the church in the wild-wood,
                              D
Oh, come to the church in the dale,
   G                      D
No place is so dear to my child-hood,
       A                          D
As the little brown church in the vale.
 
 
[Verse 2]
D                                  A
How sweet on a clear, Sabbath morn-ing,
                             D
To list to the clear ringing bell;
    G                    D
Its tones so sweetly are call-ing,
    A                         D
Oh, come to the church in the vale.
 
 
[Refrain]
D
Oh, come, come, come, come...
                               A
Come to the church in the wild-wood,
                              D
Oh, come to the church in the dale,
   G                      D
No place is so dear to my child-hood,
       A                          D
As the little brown church in the vale.
 
 
 
[Verse 3]
D                                         A
From the church in the valley by the wild-wood,
                         D
When day fades away into night,
        G                         D
I would fain from this spot of my child-hood
        A                      D
Wing my way to the mansions of light.
 
 
[Refrain]
D
Oh, come, come, come, come...
                               A
Come to the church in the wild-wood,
                              D
Oh, come to the church in the dale,
   G                      D
No place is so dear to my child-hood,
       A                          D
As the little brown church in the vale.
 
 
[Outro]
       A                          D
As the little brown church in the vale.
