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 told the undertaker
Undertaker please drive slow
For this body you are holding
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

We sang the songs of childhood
Hymns of faith that made us strong
Ones that Mother Maybelle taught us
Hear the angels sing along

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
In the sky, Lord, in the sky!
