When Will The Circle Be Broken

I was standing by the window
On one cold and cloudy day
When I saw the hearse come rolling
For to take my Mother away
Oh, will the circle be unbroken
By and by, Lord, by and by
There’s a better home awaiting
In the sky, Lord, in the sky
Hey, Undertaker, hey, Undertaker
Undertaker, please drive slow
For that body you are holding
Lord, I hate, I hate to see her go
Oh, will the circle be unbroken
By and by, Lord, by and by
There’s a better home awaiting
In the sky, Lord, in the sky
I went back home
My home was lonesome
Missed my mother, she was gone
All my brothers, sister crying
In our home so sad and alone
Will the circle be unbroken
By and by, Lord, by and by
There’s a better home awaiting
In the sky, Lord, in the sky
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 the grave
Oh, will the circle be unbroken
By and by, Lord, by and by
There’s a better home awaiting
In the sky, Lord, in the sky
Oh, will the circle be unbroken
By and by, Lord, by and by
There’s a better home awaiting
In the sky, Lord, in the sky
In the sky, Lord, in the sky
