Oh! I'd like to go back to that old country church
   A                 E
To hear the songs of praise (*songs of praise)how

the people would sing, it would make the rafters ring
                          B7      E
At that old (at that old) country church.

E
Shall we gather at the river
    B7                   E
The beautiful, beautiful river

Gather with the Saints at the river
     B7                     E
That flows by the Throne of God.

E
Oh! I'll never forget at that old country church
        A                      E
How the Glory of The Lord came down (it came down)

And the children would smile, as they shouted down the aisle
                          B7      E
Of that old (of that old) country church.

E                                  B7
In the sweet (in the sweet) by and by (by and by)

In the sweet (in the sweet) by and by (by and by)

And on Sunday I'd see, all my friends dear to me
        A                         E
At that old (at that old) country church

When it came time for prayer, everybody would be there
                          B7
At that old (at that old) country [D] church.
E        A

E
Now the years have gone by and so many have died
        A                         E
At that old (at that old) country church

But they're on the other shore,

where they'll sing forever more

As they did at that old country church.
