Roscoe Holcomb – The Village Churchyard Lyrics
Artist: Roscoe Holcomb
Song: The Village Churchyard
In a dear old village churchyard
I can see a mossy mound
That is where my mother’s sleeping
In the cold and silent ground
There in a weeping willow
Sweet little bird to sing at dawn
I have no one left to love me
Since my mother’s dead and gone
I was young but I remember
Well the night my mother died
There I saw her spirit fading
When she called me to her side
Saying, “Darling, I must leave you
And God’s voice to guide you on
Pray that we may meet in heaven
Where your mother’s dead and gone.”
Oft I’ve wandered to the churchyard
Flowers to plant with tender care
On the grave of my dear mother
Darkness finds me weeping there
Looking at the stars above me
Waiting for the early dawn
There by mother I’ll be buried
And no more be left alone
