This Little Country Church

Vs. 1
No building yet ordained by God to call our very own
No house to come and fellowship with Jesus on the throne
But the Lord, He will provide through His mercy and His grace
We are gathered here today, praising Jesus in this place

Vs. 2
We walked together in the sunshine, held hands in the rain
Sharing smiles, drying tears, every triumph, every pain
Even in the darkest valley, God brought the victory
And this little country church is like a home to me

Vs. 3
We may kneel down at the altar, in reverence to the King
Or stand and shout hallelujah, lift our hands and start to sing
Good preaching and gospel music, no place I'd rather be
Than sheltered in the arms of God, Rock of Ages, cleft for me

Refrain:
Great cathedrals have their purpose in God's kingdom
Many temples help His work to carry on
But it's here, dear Lord, I feel so close to heaven
This little country church is like my home

Note: Dedicated to the little country church
I attended not only as a child but also many
years of my adult life. Green Pond Baptist
Church in Jackson, SC.

There's people that can write books or essays or even poems. And often incredibly well.
But songs can't lie and force the writer to adhere to cadence and and specific parameters that are very unforgiving. After all, a song with no melody is merely a poem.
I hope there's someone that puts a melody to your lyrics, maybe even you. :-).
You're an excellent songwriter, a diminishing gift.
