| I was standing by the window On a cold and cloudy day When I saw the hearse come rolling To carry my mother away
Will the circle be unbroken Bye and bye Lord bye and bye There's a better home a waiting In the sky Lord in the sky
I said to the undertaker Undertaker please drive slow For that body you are carrying Lord I hate to see her go
Well I followed close behind her Tried to hold up and be brave But I could not hide my sorrow When they laid her in that grave
I went back home Lord that home was lonesome Since my mother, she was gone All my brothers and sisters crying What a home so sad and alone |

This is so sad! It sure tells our story; and I am heading to that home ! I will be thinking happy thoughts, and will be glad to be there!
I love the assurance in the lyrics that we will some day be a complete family circle again.
