Author: Ada Habershon; A. P. Carter Hymnal: Standard Songs Of The Church #355 (2017) First Line: I was standing by my window, on one cold and cloudy day Lyrics: 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 awaiting,
in the sky, Lord, in the sky.
2 Oh, I told the undertaker,
"Undertaker please drive slow.
For this body you are carrying,
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]
