[Verse]
F C
There’s a church in the valley by the wild-wood
C7 F F7
No lovelier spot in the dale
Bb F
No place is so dear to my childhood
C C7 F
As the little brown church in the vale
[Chorus]

Oh, Come, Come, Come, Come

Come to the church in the wild-wood
C7 F F7
Oh, come to the church in the dale
Bb F
No spot is so dear to my childhood
D D7 F
As the little brown church in the vale
[Verse 2]
F C
How sweet on a clear, Sabbath morn-ing
C7 F F7
To list to the clear ringing bell
Bb F
It’s tones so sweetly are calling
C C7 F
Oh, come to the church in the dale
[Chorus]

Oh, Come, Come, Come, Come
C
Come to the church in the wild-wood
C7 F F7
Oh, come to the church in the dale

No spot is so dear to my childhood
C C7 F
As the little brown church in the vale
[Verse 3]
F C
There, close by the church in the val-ley
C7 F F7
Lies one that I loved so well
Bb F
She sleeps, sweetly sleeps, ’neath the willow
C C7 F
Dis-turb not her rest in the vale
[Chorus]

Oh, Come, Come, Come, Come

Come to the church in the wild-wood
C7 F F7
Oh, come to the church in the dale
Bb F
No spot is so dear to my childhood
C C7 F
As the little brown church in the vale
[Verse 4]
F C
There, close by the side of that loved one
C7 F F7
To trees where the wild flowers bloom
Bb F
When the farewell hymn shall be chanted
C C7 F
I shall rest by her side in the tomb
[Chorus]
F
Oh, Come, Come, Come, Come
C
Come to the church in the wild-wood
C7 F F7
Oh, come to the church in the dale
Bb F
No spot is so dear to my childhood
C C7 F
As the little brown church in the vale
[Verse 5]
F C
From the church in the valley by the wild-wood
C7 F F7
When day fades away into night
Bb F
I would fain from this spot of my childhood
C C7 F
Wing my way to the mansions of light
[Chorus]
F
Oh, Come, Come, Come, Come
C
Come to the church in the wild-wood
C7 F F7
Oh, come to the church in the dale
Bb F
No spot is so dear to my childhood
C C7 F
As the little brown church in the vale
There's a church in the valley by the wildwood,
No lovelier place in the dale,
No spot is so dear to my childhood,
As the little brown church in the dale.
[chorus]
(Oh, come, come, come, come)
Oh, come to the church in the wildwood,
Come to the church in the dale,
No spot is so dear to my childhood,
As the little brown church in the dale.
How sweet on a clear Sunday morning,
To listen to the clear ringing bells,
Its tones so sweetly are calling,
Oh come to the church in the dale.
[chorus]
[bridge]
[chorus]
Oh, come to the church in the wildwood.
