I saw mom with God last night

I was mad when God took you, from me

But last night I could plainly see

That He saved you from lots of misery



A smile upon your face told me

You were happy as you could be

I'm a gonna ask God if He'll save a place for me



Mother, dear sweet precious mother, mother

(Sweet precious mother)

I saw you with God last night

He was holdin' to your hand

Showin' you around in the Promised Land

I saw you with God last night



Gonna write two letters to the heaven's blue

One to God, and one to you

I'm a gonna thank Him for bein' so nice to you



I've been cryin' since you went away

But not one tear I've shed today

'Cause I know now you're happy up there

In the heaven's blue



Mother, dear sweet precious mother, mother

(Sweet precious mother)

I saw you with God last night

He was holdin' to your hand

Showin' you around in the Promised Land

I saw you with God last night
