O, Mama
Ain't no time to fall to pieces
He has arrived, He has arrived
There by the grace of God go I-
I don't know what they mean
I don't know what they mean
And I say-

O, Father
Now I can't believe you're leaving
Seen [bad word] your eyes, seen [bad word] your eyes
There by the grace of God go I-
I don't know what they mean
I don't know what they mean
And I say-

I hear the [bad word] #39;
They say He'll be here soon
Right now there's demons crawling all around my room
They say He lives within me
They say for me He died
And now I hear His footsteps
All most every night

O, Children
This is where [bad word] to take me away-
From here
I don't know what they mean
I don't know what they mean
And I say
