[00:10.720] Goodbye to my Mama, my Uncles and Aunts
[00:15.180] One after another they went to lie down
[00:20.840] In the green pastures, beside the still waters
[00:25.310] And made no sound
[00:31.810] Their arms that've held me for so many years
[00:36.340] Their beautiful voices I no longer hear
[00:40.890] They're in Jesus arms and he's talking to them
[00:45.250] In the rapturous new Jerusalem
[00:50.850] And I know they're at peace in a land of delight
[00:55.420] But I miss my Mama tonight
[01:06.510] Goodbye Eleanor and Aunt Frannie and Joe
[01:11.510] Goodbye Uncle Jim and Elsie and Don
[01:16.900] Goodbye to my Mama who went to lie down
[01:21.310] And now is gone
[01:29.640] Who's hands are these, all rough and hard
[01:37.100] Nails all torn from toil and care
[01:44.520] Who cleaned the house and kept the yard
[01:51.990] Touched my cheek and stroked my hair
[01:59.800] Thank you, Mama, the Lord give you peace
[02:07.060] Bless your voice and the songs you've sung
[02:14.440] Bless your arms and your hands and your knees
[02:21.670] How you loved us when we were young
[02:29.420] The Lord's my Shepherd, I not want
[02:36.710] I have my Mama, my Uncles and Aunts
[02:44.260] Water so still and pastures so green
[02:51.700] Goodness and mercy following me
[02:59.280] Goodness and mercy following me
