INTRO

C G C

VERSE 1

C Bb

I was standing by the bedside

C

Where my fevered mother laid

Bb C

When she called me close beside her

G C

And these words I heard her say

CHORUS

C

I've just seen the Rock of Ages

G C

Jacob's ladder hanged down

C

I've just crossed the river of Jordan

G C

Now my son I'm homeward bound

VERSE 2

As we gathered all around her

The tears began to fill our eyes

Then she called me close beside

Whispered softly her goodbyes

(CHORUS)

VERSE 3

High breeze blowing on the mountain

Where forever she will lay

There she'll rest beside the fountain

There she'll sleep beneath the clay

(CHORUS)
