Watch the video for The Old Country Church from Hank Williams's The Unreleased … 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 we spent With our friends at the old country church With my friends at the old country church There with mother we went, and our Sundays were spent With our friends at the old country church. Lyrics to 'The Old Country Church' by Hank Williams. THE TRADITION CONTINUES … Theirs is one of the most distinctive and recognizable … 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 at the old country church.
