INTRO
VERSE 1
I was standing by the bedside
Where my fevered mother laid
When she called me close beside her
And these words I heard her say
CHORUS
I've just seen the Rock of Ages
Jacob's ladder hanged down
I've just crossed the river of Jordan
Now my son I'm homeward bound
VERSE 2
As we gathered all around her
The tears began to fill our eyes
Then she called me close beside
Whispered softly her goodbyes
(CHORUS)
VERSE 3
High breeze blowing on the mountain
Where forever she will lay
There she'll rest beside the fountain
There she'll sleep beneath the clay
(CHORUS)
