Goodbye to my Mama, my uncles and aunts
One after another they went to lie down.
In the green pastures beside the still waters
And make no sound.
Their arms that held me for so many years
Their beautiful voices no longer I'll hear
They're in Jesus' arms and He's talking to them
In the rapturous new Jerusalem.
And I know they're at peace in a land of delight
But I miss my Mama tonight.

Goodbye Eleanor, and Aunt Franny and Jo
Goodbye Uncle Jim, and Elsie and Don
Goodbye to my Mama who went to lie down
And now is gone.

Whose hands are these so rough and hard
Nails all torn from toil and care
Who cleaned the house and kept the yard
Touched my cheek and stroked my hair
Thank you Mama the lord give you peace.
Bless your voice and the songs you've sung.
Blessed your arms and your hands and your knees.
How you loved us when we were young.
The lord's my shepherd I'll not want.
I have my Mama, my uncles and aunts.
Waters so still and pastures so green.
Goodness and mercy following me.
Goodness and mercy following me
