Текст песни Little Delta Church (Charley Pride) с переводом

Along the river by the road near a Mississippi town

Was a place where my family loved to go

Was the church house with a steeple and was always filled with people

Cause the neighbors came from miles and miles around

As a boy and as a man in the front row I would stand

And raised my voice to God up in the sky

Everybody joined the singing till the little church was ringing

With songs like In The Sweet By And By

In the sweet by and by

We shall meet on that beautiful shore

Though I’ve long been lost in sin I can dream it back again

To the little church that’s nestled in my mind

In the early part of May delta nights were hard to take

So we opened up the windows and the doors

The congregation’s sat and fanned some with bibles in their hands

Out into the night the words of God would pour

Precious memories how they linger

How they ever flood my soul

In the stillness of the midnight

Precious sacred scenes unfold

In the sweet by and by

We shall meet on that beautiful shore

Though I’ve long been lost in sin I can dream me back again

To the little church that’s nestled in my mind
