(ada ruth habershon)



I was standing by my window

On one cold and cloudy day

I saw the hearse come a-rolling

For it carried my mother away



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 call out undertaker

"undertaker, please drive slow

For this body you are holding

Lord i hate to see her go"



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 will follow close beside her

Try to hold on and 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 awaiting

In the sky lord, in the sky



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



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



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



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

In the sky lord,

In the sky lord,

In the sky!
