Old Church
Old church, what immense longing
From that time that goes far away
When you existed here
Memories bring to me today
Old church, what immense longing
From those days you left
Old church no longer exists
Loving God, you taught me
Old church no longer exists
Loving God, you taught me!
Old church when I remember
The great love you gave me
Passing the years, I haven't forgotten
Memories bring to me today
Old church, I won't forget
That it was you who taught me to love
Old church, you didn't die
Inside me, you live on
Old church, you didn't die
Inside me, you live on
(What longing! What immense longing!
That's right, my old church
It's the longing that is inside me
When I remember those wonderful days
When you loved me, and also taught me to love
Look, things around here are very different today
And with great longing, I remember you
Thank you, my church, for everything you did for me
You continue inside me, thank you very much!)
Old church when I remember
The great love you gave me
Passing the years, I haven't forgotten
Memories bring to me today
Old church, I won't forget
That it was you who taught me to love
Old church, you didn't die
Inside me, you live on
Old church, you didn't die
Inside me, you live on
