Our home was silent and so sad
Dad took sick and had to leave us
I have no home No mother nor dad
There's a little lonesome grave yard
On these tombstones it did say
On mother's "gone but not forgotten"
On dad's "we'll meet again someday"
I often go out to the graveyard
Where they laided them down to rest
I can almost hear them whisper
Trust in god He'll do the rest
Their souls have gone up to heaven
Where they'll dwell with god above
Where they'll meet there friends and loved ones
And share with all his precious love
Mother left this world of sorrow Our home was silent and so sad Dad took sick and had to leave us I have no home No mother nor dad There's a little lonesome grave yard On these tombstones it did say On mother's "gone but not forgotten" On dad's "we'll meet again someday" I often go out to the graveyard Where they laided them down to rest I can almost hear them whisper Trust in god He'll do the rest Their souls have gone up to heaven Where they'll dwell with god above Where they'll meet there friends and loved ones And share with all his precious love Explain Request ×
