Old Country Church (Hallelujah Version)

[Verse 1]

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

With my friends at the old country church

There with mother, we went, and our Sundays were spent

With my friends at the old country church

[Refrain]

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

[Verse 2]

As a small country boy, how my heart beat with joy

When I knelt in the old country church

And the Savior above, by His wonderful love

Saved my soul in the old country church

[Refrain]

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

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]

How I wish that today all the people would pray

As they prayed in the old country church

If they'd only confess, Jesus surely would bless

As He did in the old country church

[Refrain]

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

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

[Outro]

With my friends at the old country church
