paroles de chanson Tell Mother I'll Be There - Roy Acuff

When I was but a little child how well I recollect
How I would grieve my mother with my folly and neglect
And now that she has gone to Heaven I miss her tender care
O Savior tell my mother I'll be there

Tell mother I'll be there in answer to her prayer
This message blessed Savior to her bear
Tell mother I'll be there heaven's joys with her to share
Yes tell my darling mother I'll be there

Though I was often wayward she was always kind and good
So patient gentle loving when my ways were rough and rude
My childhood grief's and trials she would gladly with me share
O Savior tell my mother I'll be there

One day a message came to me it bade me quickly come
If I would see my mother ere the Savior took her home
I promised her before she died for heaven to prepare
O Savior tell my mother I'll be there
Tell mother I'll be there in answer to her prayer
This message blessed Savior to her bear
Tell mother I'll be there heaven's joys with her to share
Yes tell my darling mother I'll be there
