May the Circle Be Unbroken
I was standing by my window
On one cold and cloudy day
When I saw that hearse come rolling
For to carry my mother away
May the circle be unbroken
By and by, Lord, by and by
There's a better home a-waiting
In the sky, Lord, in the sky
Lord, I told to the undertaker
Undertaker please drive slow
For this body you are holding
Lord, I hate to see her go
May the circle be unbroken
By and by, Lord, by and by
There's a better land a-waiting
In the sky, Lord, in the sky
Oh, I followed close beside her
Tried to hold up and be brave
But I could not hide my sorrow
When they laid her in the grave
May the circle be unbroken
By and by, Lord, by and by
There's a better land a-waiting
In the sky, Lord, in the sky
On one cold and cloudy day
When I saw that hearse come rolling
For to carry my mother away
May the circle be unbroken
By and by, Lord, by and by
There's a better home a-waiting
In the sky, Lord, in the sky
Lord, I told to the undertaker
Undertaker please drive slow
For this body you are holding
Lord, I hate to see her go
May the circle be unbroken
By and by, Lord, by and by
There's a better land a-waiting
In the sky, Lord, in the sky
Oh, I followed close beside her
Tried to hold up and be brave
But I could not hide my sorrow
When they laid her in the grave
May the circle be unbroken
By and by, Lord, by and by
There's a better land a-waiting
In the sky, Lord, in the sky
