The Dying Mother

Written by A.P. Carter

	  		
Intro A 


Verse 1:

D A On a cold winter’s eve as the snowflakes were falling E In a low humble cottage a poor mother lay A D A And although wracked with pain as she lay there contented E A With her Savior, her Friend and peace with Him made
tabchorus
D A We will all meet again on that great Judgment morning E The books will be open, the roll will be called A D A Oh how sad it will be if forever we’re parted E A While some rise to Glory and others stand the Fall

Instrumental A D A E A

Verse 2:

D A Oh that mother of yours has gone o’er the river E And you promised you’d meet her while knelt by her bed A D A As the death sweat rolled off and fell down on her pillow E A Oh, her mem’ry still lives although she is dead
tabchorus
D A We will all meet again on that great Judgment morning E The books will be open, the roll will be called A D A Oh how sad it will be if forever we’re parted E A While some rise to Glory and others stand the Fall

Verse 3:

D A You remember the kiss and the last words she uttered E Oh the arms that embraced you are with you no more A D A As you stand by her grave teardrops fall on her casket E A And you vowed there to meet her on that happy shore
Outro D A We will all meet again on that great Judgment morning E The books will be open, the roll will be called A D A Oh how sad it will be if forever we’re parted E A While some rise to Glory and others stand the Fall
