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 our friends at the old country church

Precious years of memory (sweet memory)
Oh what joy they bring to me (joy they bring to me)
How I long once more to be (long once more to be)
With my friends at the old country church

As a small country boy how my heartbeat 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

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
