I was strolling one day in a lonly graveyard,
When a voice from the tomb seemed to say,
I once lived as you lived walked and talked as tou talked,
But from earth I was soon called away

Chorus
Oh those tombs ( oh those tombs) lonely tombs (lonely tombs)
Seemed to say in a low gentle tone
Ph how sweet (oh how sweet) is the rest(is the rest)
In our beautiful Heavedly home

Every voice from the tomb seemed to whisper and say,
Living man you must soon follow me,
And I thought as I looked on those cold marble slabs
What a dark lonely place that must be,

Then I came to the place where my mother was laid,
and in silence I stood by her tomb,
and her voice seemed to say in a low gentle tone,
I an safe with my Savior at home.

Chorus
