The Oak Ridge Boys - The Old Country Church lyrics

There's a place near 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 our friends at the old country church. 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 at the old country church. How I wish that today all the people would pray As we prayed in the old country church If they'd only confess, Jesus surely would bless As he did in the old country church. Of't my thoughts make me weep, for so many now sleep In their graves near the old country church And sometime I may rest, with the friends I love best In a grave near the old country church. Precious years of memories, Oh what joy they bring to me (they bring to me) How I long once more to be, With my friends at the old country church...
