An Old Wooden Church

It was an old wooden church
that stood the test of time,
it was a hundred years old
but it still looked mighty fine.
If you go there on any Sunday
or even on a Wednesday night,
you would hear the local folks
praising the Lord and singing
late into the night;
singing glory, glory Hallelujah,
and praise the Lord Hallelujah.

Little Country Church

Little Country church on the edge of town
Do do do do do do do,
People comin' everywhere from miles around
For meetins' and for Sunday school.

Calvary Chapel Music 1972
sung by Love Song.

How about a few bars of "The Little Brown Church In The Vale"?

Nice poetry James, very nice indeed.

She told me "play one for your supper Danny and maybe you'll get breakfast".

Hah! I was thinking the same song, Ticklefingers, as I read this.

Good poem and good song TF and Jerrypat2!

It was just a thought which made them run. It was just an act that killed them.
