  Hello Greg,

                    I just wanted to add to the list already. I can't tell you

  how valuable this websight is to me. So let me help if possible. A request

  was given in the most recent issue of cowpie. The Nelsons asked for " The

  Church In The Wildwood " and I sent it to them directly but the sight should

  get it as well.

   This is Roger Owens interpretation of an old hymn from the Cokesbury Worship

  hymnal. It appears to be written by Dr. Wm. S. Pitts

  

                                               The Church in The Wildwood

  G                                                      D

  There's a church in the valley in the wildwood

                                  G

  No lovelier spot in the dale, 

       C                                G

  No place is so dear to my childhood

            D                                  G-C-G

  As the little brown church in the vale

                   G                                          D

       Chorus: Come to the church in the wildwood

                                                                G

                    Oh, come to the church in the vale

                         C                             G

                    No spot is so dear to my childhood

                              D                                  G-C-G

                    As the little brown church in the vale

       G                                               D

       Oh, come to the church in the wildwood

                                                   G

  To the trees where the wildflowers bloom

                       C                            G

  Where the the parting hymn will be chanted

             D                                G-C-G

  We will weep by the side of the tomb

  

        G                                          D

        How sweet on a clear sabbath morning

                                       G

  To list to the clear ringing bell, 

      C                              G

  It's tones so sweetly are calling

        D                                    G-C-G

  Oh, come to the church in the vale

  

       Repeat Chorus

        G                                                        D

        From the church in the valley by the wildwood

           D                            G

  When day fades away into night

             C                                 G

  I would fain from this spot of my childhood

                D                                G-C-G

  Wing my way to the mansions of light

  

       Repeat chorus 

  

       My apologies to the Nelsons for leaving out a verse. My Father-In-law

  passed away in Feb. of this year due to cancer. I sang this at his funeral

  because it was an old favorite but my wifes' family asked me to leave out the

  second verse because it was too close to home.

                                                                            God

  Bless,

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

                                                                          Roger
