Will The Circle Be Unbroken

Glory, glory, Hallelujah When I lay my burden down Glory, glory, Hallelujah When I lay my burden down I was standin' by my window On a cold and cloudy day When I saw that hearse come rollin' For to carry my mother away Will the circle be unbroken By and by, Lord, by and by There's a better home a-waitin' In the sky, Lord, in the sky I said to the undertaker "Undertaker, please drive slow For this body you are holdin' Oh, I hate to see here go" Will the circle be unbroken By and by, Lord, by and by There's a better home a-waitin' In the sky, Lord, in the sky I followed close behind her Tried to hold up and be brave But I could not hide my sorrow When they laid her in the grave Will the circle be unbroken By and by, Lord, by and by There's a better home a-waitin' In the sky, Lord, in the sky I went back home, then my home was lonesome Since mama, she was gone All my brothers and sisters cryin' What a home, home so sad and lone Will the circle be unbroken By and by, Lord, by and by There's a better home a-waitin' In the sky, Lord, in the sky Glory, glory, Hallelujah And I lay my burden down Glory, glory, Hallelujah And I lay my burden down
