"Will The Circle Be Unbroken" lyrics

I was standing by the window
On one cold and cloudy day
And I saw that hearse come rolling
For to carry my mother away

Well, I told that undertaker
"Undertaker, please drive slow
For that body you are hauling
Lord, I hate to see her go"

Will the circle be unbroken?
By and by, Lord, by and by
There's a better home a-waiting
In the sky, Lord, in the sky

I thought I'd follow close behind her
Tried to hold up and be brave
But I could not hide my sorrow
When they laid her in that grave

Will the circle be unbroken?
By and by, Lord, by and by
There's a better home a-waiting
In the sky, Lord, in the sky
In the sky, Lord, in the sky
