There is a village
|
hidden deep in the valley
|
Among the pine trees half forlorn
|
And there on a Sunday morning
|
Little Jimmy Brown was born
|
All the chapel bells were ringing
|
in the little valley town
|
And the songs that they were singing
|
was for baby Jimmy Brown
|
Then the little congregation
|
prayed for guidance from above
|
Lead us not into temptation
|
bless this hour of meditation
|
Guide him with eternal love
|
There is a village
|
hidden deep in the valley
|
Beneath the mountains high above
|
And there, twenty years there after
|
Jimmy was to meet his love
|
All the chapel bells were ringing
|
was a great day in his life
|
'Cause the songs that they were singing
|
was for Jimmy and his wife
|
Then the little congregation
|
prayed for guidance from above
|
Lead us not into temptation
|
bless, oh Lord this celebration
|
May their lives be filled with love
|
From the village hidden deep in the valley
|
One rainy morning dark and gray
|
A soul winged its way to heaven
|
Little Jimmy Brown had passed away
|
Just a lonely bell was ringing
|
in the little valley town
|
Was farewell that it was singing
|
to our little Jimmy Brown
|
And the little congregation
|
prayed for guidance from above
|
Lead us not into temptation
|
may his soul find the salvation
|
Of thy great eternal love
|
