There's a place near to me where I'm longing to be

With my friends at the old country church

With mother we went and our Sundays we spent

With friends at the old country church

Precious years of memories

Oh what joy they bring to me

How I long once more to be

With my friends at the old country church

As a small country boy how my heart beat with joy

When I knelt at the old country church

And the saver above was his wonderful love

Saved my soul at the old country church

Precious years of memories

Oh what joy they bring to me

How I long once more to be

With my friends at the old country church

With my friends at the old country church
