Mama's Bible - Mel McDaniel

I use to be afraid of dying when I’d think about having to go

Now I know I’m gonna live forever mama’s bible tells me so

It said that just believing is the key to it all

And that I’m forgiven every time I fall

Hallelujah, hallelujah, mama’s bible tells me so

When it rains I know he’s crying for the love of all mankind

And he hurts inside just like us when he’s left behind

But I know he is my shepherd and he’ll never walk away

Because he gave us Jesus for a friend on judgment day

All I’d loved are cared for had either changed or gone

I reached for mama’s bible for strength to carry on

Like my heart it gathered dust like it’s pages I was worn

And as to life for both of us oh Gabriel blow your horn

And I’ll trust in mama’s bible till it’s time for me to go

Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah
