The Little Brick Church at 2405 on Third
In the west end of Staunton hidden from most views
Is a little brick church with welcoming pews
Some people can't find it when they attempt to look
So "Please" write these directions in your little
black book
The route that is best, some people claim
comes in from the west, 250's the name
Turn right at the first light as you enter town
Grubert is the street name, but some people say his
name wasn't found
Now most of us learned when we went to school,
that three comes before four, but for some reason
Grubert doesn't follow that rule
So don't be foolish and do what some people do
When they don't see Third
They turn around and start feeling blue
It takes persistence to find, the little brick
church at 2405 on Third
So pay attention and keep going straight on, just
like a bird
When you see the big school high up on the hill
Prepare to soon turn left, hold tight on the wheel
For there is the street that some people can't find
You'll easily see it, unless you're blind
When you make that turn, on the left you'll see
The little brick church welcoming thee
So don't pass it by and wonder why
Some folks attend there and talk about a home in
the sky
On Sunday morning you need to learn more
Get up, get ready and enter the door
At the little brick church at 2405 on Third
You'll meet good people and hear the Lord's Word
They will welcome you in, so hold up your chin
This place is for you, you may as well stay and
begin
You will find, the coffee is ready for your
caffeine fit
So help yourself, take a chair and sit
You will soon see that this little brick church
has the potential to be a hit
Now the Sunday School class, you don't want to pass
You'll learn that God loves you,
that your important and not just something that
evolved out of mass
The next service
will keep you from getting nervous
There is singing and sharing and praying and caring
Your welcome to join in no matter what your wearing
Then comes God's Word
To bless you when heard
Now remember all of this takes place
At the little brick church at 2405 on Third.
Though the service is great
We all know it would not carry much weight
If people didn't plan it
and participate too
and without those people, you just can't do
So listen my friend, and don't have a fit
But here is what you really miss if you don't find
it
First the Lord and His love, His power and care
And next all his people that share.
They're the Wengers the Weavers the Freisens and
Zendts
the Blossers and Duncans a variety of Showalters
too
the Rowlands the Stricklands the Mules and the Harlows
and Yoders and Shifflets and Delps
an Echard a Houser a Birch a Cornelius and a Drumheller
what makes this church great, is each important fellow
And don't miss the man , with the future plan
The Gassers are here to help us all find the
promised land
So don't you ever get in a bind
And forget how important it is to find
The little brick church at 2405 on Third
or you'll miss a lot of good people and an chance
to hear the Lord's Word
