WILL THE CIRCLE BE UNBROKEN

By:  A. P. Carter



 

1. I was standing by my window on one cold and cloudy day.
When I saw the hearse come rolling, for to carry my Mother away.

CHORUS:

Will 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.

2. Oh, I told the undertaker, "Undertaker please drive slow.
For this body you are hauling, Lord, I hate to see her go.

CHORUS:

3. I will follow close behind her, try to hold up and be brave;
But I could not hide my sorrow, when they laid her in her grave.

CHORUS:

4.  I went back home, my home was lonely since my mother she was gone.
Dear old papa, sis, and brother, what a home so sad and lone.

CHORUS:
