Bill Anderson is joined by The Whites to sing Mama Sang A Song live on Country's Family Reunion: Bill Anderson's 50th Anniversary Celebration! • Lyrics: • God put a song in the heart of an angel • And softly she sang it to me • I get to thinking lots of times • About back when I was a lad • Of the old home place where I grew up • Of the days both good and bad • My overalls were hand-me-downs • My shoes were full of holes • I used to walk four miles to school every day • Through the rain, the sleet and the cold • I've seen the nights when my daddy would cry • For the things that his family would need • But all he ever got was a bad land farm • And seven hungry mouths to feed • And yet, and yet our home fire never flickered once • 'Cause when all these things went wrong • Mama took the hymn book down • And mama sang a song • What a friend we have in Jesus • I've been rocked to sleep many a-night • To the tune of What a Friend • And come morning, Rock of Ages • Would wake me gently once again • And then daddy would reach up, and he'd take the bible down • And he'd read it, read it loud and long • And I always felt that maybe our home was blessed • When daddy would say Mama, sing a song • Sister left home first I guess • And then Bob, and then Tommy, and then Dan • By then dad's hair was turning white • And I had to be my mama's little man • But it seemed that as daddy's back grew weak • My mother's faith just grew strong • And those were the greatest days of all • When mama sang a song • Rock of ages cleft for me • Let me hide myself in Thee • I guess the house is still standing • I don't get to go back much anymore • No voice is left to fill those halls • And no steps to grace the floor • For you see my mother sings in heaven now • Around God's golden throne • But I'll always believe that this world is a better place • Because one time my mama sang a song • Precious memories flood my soul • Listen to more great Country's Family Reunion music at lnk.to/CfrListenNow • Shop our store at countrysfamilyreunion.myshopify.com • @BillAnderson @CountrysFamilyReunion
