コメントアイオワ州のFredricksburgの近くの村Bradfordに、この歌の教会があります。作曲者のピッツは、
実際には教会が作られる以前にその場所をイメージして作ったとのことです。(1865年出版)
歌詞There's a church in the valley by the wildwood,
No lovelier spot in the dale;
No place is so dear to my childhood,
As the little brown church in the vale.
(Oh come, come, ... )
Come to the church in the wildwood
Oh, come to the church in the vale,
No lovelier spot in the dale;
No place is so dear to my childhood,
As the little brown church in the vale.

Oh, come to the church in the vale,
To the trees where the wild flowers bloom;
Where the parting hymn will be chanted,
We will weep by the side of the tomb.

How sweet on a clear Sabbath morning,
To list to the clear ringing bell;
Its tones so sweetly are calling,
Oh come to the church in the vale.

From the church in the valley by the wildwood,
When day fades away into night,
I would fain from this spot of my childhood
Wing my way to the mansions of light.

Come to the church by the wildwood,
Oh, come to the church in the vale.
