Can the Circle Be Unbroken?
Cho: Can the Circle Be Unbroken,
By and By, Lord, Bye and Bye?
There's a Better Home A-waiting
In the Sky, Lord, in the Sky.
I Was Standing By the Window
On One Cold and Cloudy Day;
And I Saw the Hearse Come Rolling
For to Carry My Mother Away.
Lord, I Told the Undertaker,
«Undertaker, Please Drive Slow;
For This Body You Are Hauling,
Lord, I Hate to See Her Go»
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.
Went Back Home, Lord, My Home Was Lonesome
Since My Mother, She Was Gone;
All My Brothers, Sisters Crying
What a Home So Sad and Lone.
Now My Mother, She's Crossed Over
Where So Many Have Gone Before.
And I Know, Lord, I Will Meet Her
Just Waiting At Glory's Door.
