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

I was standing by my window

On one cold and cloudy day

When I saw that hearse come rolling

For to carry my mother away

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

Lord I told that undertaker

Undertaker please drive slow

For this lady you are holding

Lord I hate to see here go

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

I will followed close behind her

Tried to hold up then 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 waiting

In the sky Lord in the sky

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
