In the Sky Lord

I was standing by the window
On one cold and cloudy day
And I saw the hearse come rolling
For to carry my baby away
Lord, I told the undertaker
Undertaker, please drive slow
For this body you are hauling
How I hate to see her go
And Lord, I’m feeling broken
Could you please send me a sign
That there's a better home a-waiting
In the sky, Lord, in the sky
Well I followed close beside her
Tried to hold up and be brave
But I could not hide my sorrow
When they laid her in the grave
Oh Lord, my faith is shaking
Could you please send me a sign
That there's a better home a-waiting
In the sky, Lord, in the sky
Well I went back to our old home
It weren’t the same now that she’d gone
Spent the whole night moaning and crying
Lying desperate, sad and alone
Oh Lord, my faith is shaking
Could you please send me a sign
That there's a better home a-waiting
In the sky, Lord, in the sky
Oh Lord, my heart is aching
I just can’t seem to understand why
But I’ll do my best to trust You
In the sky, Lord, in the sky
In the sky, Lord, in the sky
