Lyrics for Mother No Longer Awaits Me At Home by Stanley Brothers:
| | | Artist: | Stanley Brothers |
| | Album: | Unknown | | Track: | Mother No Longer Awaits Me At Home | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 173 | | | | Lyrics: | One night while the moon from heaven was shining
My mother was praying for me to come
home
She asked her dear lord watch o'er me out yonder
To send me back home to never more
roam
When I left my old home way back in the mountains
I said I'd return with honor and
fame
But a young reckless heart turned wrong at the crossroads
And now as I go home I bring
mother shame
When I got to the place where I spent my childhood
The silvery moon was
shining so bright
When I asked my dear friends to tell me of mother
They said she was called
on to heaven last night
She told them of how she was longing to see me
How lonely her
home since I went away
Said darling repent and ask for forgiveness
And meet mother there in
heaven some day
Mother has gone to live with the angels
Her soul is at rest around the
great throne
Now I have no one left here to advise me
For mother no longer awaits me at home | | | |
