[00:10.720] |
Goodbye to my Mama, my Uncles and Aunts |
[00:15.180] |
One after another they went to lie down |
[00:20.840] |
In the green pastures, beside the still waters |
[00:25.310] |
And made no sound |
[00:31.810] |
Their arms that've held me for so many years |
[00:36.340] |
Their beautiful voices I no longer hear |
[00:40.890] |
They're in Jesus arms and he's talking to them |
[00:45.250] |
In the rapturous new Jerusalem |
[00:50.850] |
And I know they're at peace in a land of delight |
[00:55.420] |
But I miss my Mama tonight |
[01:06.510] |
Goodbye Eleanor and Aunt Frannie and Joe |
[01:11.510] |
Goodbye Uncle Jim and Elsie and Don |
[01:16.900] |
Goodbye to my Mama who went to lie down |
[01:21.310] |
And now is gone |
[01:29.640] |
Who's hands are these, all rough and hard |
[01:37.100] |
Nails all torn from toil and care |
[01:44.520] |
Who cleaned the house and kept the yard |
[01:51.990] |
Touched my cheek and stroked my hair |
[01:59.800] |
Thank you, Mama, the Lord give you peace |
[02:07.060] |
Bless your voice and the songs you've sung |
[02:14.440] |
Bless your arms and your hands and your knees |
[02:21.670] |
How you loved us when we were young |
[02:29.420] |
The Lord's my Shepherd, I not want |
[02:36.710] |
I have my Mama, my Uncles and Aunts |
[02:44.260] |
Water so still and pastures so green |
[02:51.700] |
Goodness and mercy following me |
[02:59.280] |
Goodness and mercy following me |
