Little Church Lyrics

Every stained glass tells a story

Of the folks who once belonged

The pictures and the tapestries

Remind us of the ones who've gone

And if these walls could tell their story

What a tale I know would be told

Of the little church that stands so proud

By the side of the road

The vows made and the promises

We watched sealed with a kiss

Tears shed as we said goodbye

To those we knew we'd miss

The voices of the choir raised

The bible stories told

In that little church that stands so proud

By the side of the road

A hundred years have come and gone

And a thousand things have changed

Everything we knew as truth before

It somehow still remains

How many generations now

Have watched their lives unfold

In that little church that stands so proud

By the side of the road

Now the congregation's smaller

Than it ever was before

And every year a few less people

Grace her open doors

But you will still find sanctuary

When the world turns harsh and cold

In that little church that stands so proud

By the side of the road

Side of the road
