Mother No Longer Awaits Me - The Stanley Brothers[00:00:00]

One night while the moon from heaven was shining[00:00:08]

My mother was praying for me to come home[00:00:16]

She asked her dear lord watch o'er me out yonder[00:00:23]

To send me back home to never more roam[00:00:31]

When I left my old home way back in the mountains[00:00:39]

I said I'd return with honor and fame[00:00:46]

But a young reckless heart turned wrong at the crossroads[00:00:54]

And now as I go home I bring mother shame[00:01:02]

When I got to the place where I spent my childhood[00:01:25]

The silvery moon was shining so bright[00:01:32]

When I asked my dear friends to tell me of mother[00:01:40]

They said she was called on to heaven last night[00:01:47]

She told them of how she was longing to see me[00:01:55]

How lonely her home since I went away[00:02:03]

Said darling repent and ask for forgiveness[00:02:10]

And meet mother there in heaven some day[00:02:18]

Mother has gone to live with the angels[00:02:26]

Her soul is at rest around the great throne[00:02:33]

Now I have no one left here to advise me[00:02:41]

For mother no longer awaits me at home[00:02:49]
