Precious Memories (1999)

Dolly Parton singing a great rendition of 'The Church in the Wildwood'. Songwriter was William S. Pitts.

Lyric:
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 vale.


(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 vale.

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.

(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 vale.

(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 vale.
