Wood Nymph
THE OLD CHURCH ON THE HILL
The church stands proudly on a hill.
It is a place where people go to pray.
Next to the tennis court,
Buckhead Swamp lines the way.
God knows all the secrets
confessed at this old church.
Christians leave them at the alter-
all their sadness, all their hurts.
The church proudly carries a legacy.
Forefatheres once occupied the pews.
Neighbors mingle after the sermon
and leaves with spirits renewed.
It is a place where people go to pray.
Next to the tennis court,
Buckhead Swamp lines the way.
God knows all the secrets
confessed at this old church.
Christians leave them at the alter-
all their sadness, all their hurts.
The church proudly carries a legacy.
Forefatheres once occupied the pews.
Neighbors mingle after the sermon
and leaves with spirits renewed.
