| She lies there so peaceful in her eternal sleep
|
| With wreaths of flowers from her head to her feet
|
| A gown of gold she wears to match her silver hair
|
| A peaceful smile upon her face
|
| That shows her heavenly grace
|
| Come gather 'round children bow your head and pray
|
| Come gather 'round children while they lay Mama away
|
| She gave us all her good years oh Lord she gave us all her best
|
| Come gather 'round children while they lay our precious Mama to rest
|
| Now Dad he’s waited so long for Mama to join him
|
| And on her right lies my brother John
|
| On Dad’s left lies my sister a flower taken Lord while still in bloom
|
| I know we’ll miss her but Lord they’ll be so glad to see her |
