[Verse 1]
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 friends at the old country church

[Chorus]
Precious years of memories
Oh, what joy they bring to me
How I long once more to be
With my friends at the old country church

[Verse 2]
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 in the old country church

[Chorus]
Precious years of memories
Oh, what joy they bring to me
How I long once more to be
With my friends at the old country church
With my friends at the old country church
