Author: William Matthew Golden Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #15387 First Line: In a graveyard lone, near the dear old home Refrain First Line: From this earth dear mother’s gone Lyrics: 1 In a graveyard lone, near the dear old home,
Lies a form I love so well;
And I’ll ne’er forget how she cared for me,
Ere she said, My boy, farewell.
Refrain:
From this earth dear mother’s gone,
But we’ll meet on Canaan’s shore;
There we’ll live while ages roll,
Where sad partings come no more.
2 O the dear old home where I used to play,
Is a place most dear to me;
But the one I loved I shall see no more,
Till I cross the jasper sea. [Refrain]
3 Near the dear old home, in the graveyard lone,
Mother’s form was laid to rest;
But we’ll meet again in the by and by,
And be numbered with the blest. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [In a graveyard lone, near the dear old home]
