Oh, Lord come see our blood stained lands.  Come stop the wicked from what they plan.  Oh, Lord come hold the children's  hands,  For they've lost their smiles as they've ran.--Oh, Lord come see our blood stained lands.  Send down Your mighty Angel Band.  Remove the power from hatred hands.  Oh, Lord, please help my fellowman.--Oh, Lord come see our blood stained lands.  Send Grace and Mercy to weary men.  Come hold their children's fearful hands.  For, they've lost their smiles as they've ran.--Oh, Lord come see our blood stained lands.  Pass out Your judgment on wicked men. Take their strength.  Don't let them stand.  For, they've spilt the blood that stains our land.--Oh, Lord, please help my fellowman.  Hold their children's little hands.  Heal their souls.  Oh, come defend.  For, they've lost their smiles as they've ran.

She came and went some time ago.
  She spilt her dirt upon my soul.
  It seems to me that lies have been told
 about the love of life from what I know.

  Her darkened soul crept through my door 
and spoke tongues.  
That filthy whore. 
 Oh, my friend my brother true, 
don't you taste her poison fruit.

--You can't miss what you ain't had.
  Kiss her once and you'll be back. 
 She will make you lie, cheat, and steal. 
 But,you won't care. 
 For you won't feel.-

-Her darkened soul crept through my door. 
 Spoke in tongues of that filthy whore.
  And, it seems to me that lies have been told
 about the love of life from what I know.-

-She gets under my skin.
  She's my super hero.
  When she crawls back out again. 
  I'm nothin' but zero.
  She gets under my skin. 
 She's my super hero.
  But, when crawls back out again. 
  I'm nothin' but zero.-

-Oh, my friend. 
 My brother true.
  Don't you look on back when she smiles at you.
  She will rape your kin and make them old. 
 And, take from them what she don't own.
  She will come and she will go.
  And, spill her dirt upon your soul.  
You will cheat and lie, and steal.
  For the love of her is all you feel.

--She gets under my skin.
  She's my superhero.
  But, when she crawls back out again. 
  I'm nothin' but zero.
  She gets under my skin. 
 She's my super hero
.  But, when she crawls back out again. 
 I'm nothin' but zero.--

Oh, my friend. 
 My brother true.
 Don't  look on back when she smiles at you. 
 Take one thing from me that I know.
  She will take you down a dead end road.
  She will spill her dirt upon your soul. 
 Turn you into someone that you don't know.
  Oh, my friend. 
 My brother true. 
 Don't you look on back when she smiles at you.

Well, I got sunshine in the morning
a smile upon my face-loving arms around me to get me through the day

How am I gonna live life without you-
what will I do- at the end of the day
-I reach for you-but, the bed is so empty
-I'm beggin you-won't you come back to me-

--how am I gonna live life without you-
what do I do with the memories we made
-I close my eyes-but, your words keep repeating
-it wasn't planned-but, I found someone new--

-oh, am I gonna live life without you-
what do I say-when someone's talkin to me
-cause, I can't think of a thing but your picture
-you know the one- where you're lovin me--

-how am I gonna live life without you-
what do I do at the end of the day
-I reach for you-but, the bed is so empty
-I'm beggin you-won't you come back to me-

Oh, my sister hold my hand-
For death is calling out my name-
Listen close let me explain-
Just how this story all began---
His name was Jackson Wesley Jones-
And, he was the kindest man I've ever known-
Listen close let me explain-
That, Jackson was your daddy's name---
Oh, my daughter hold my hand-
I 'm your mother, but not by name-
But, God knows I loved you just the same-
Oh, my daughter hold my hand---
Hush your words-
We have no time-
For far too long we lived a lie-
Oh, listen close and I'll explain-
How the war took him away---
Oh, my daughter hold my hand-
For, Death is calling out my name-
Listen close and I'll explain-
How Ma and Pa were so ashamed---
Oh, my daughter hold my hand-
I'm your mother, but not by name-
But, God knows I loved you just the same-
Oh, my daughter hold my hand---
Oh, my daughter, daddy cried-
That sin of yours we'll have to hide-
So, listen close let me explain-
For lies and deception is in the plan---
Oh, my daughter you must go-
Along with your mother to her folks-
Now, listen close let me explain-
You will all return upon the birth-
But, your Ma will say that the child is hers---
Oh, my daughter hold my hand-
I'm your mother,but not by name-
But, God knows I loved you just the same---
Oh, my darling hold my hand-
Oh, my darling hold my hand-
For, Death is calling out my name-
But, I could not go, till I explained---
"I love you" Mama's precious words-
Her smile told her that she had heard-
And, with that smile she left this earth---
"Oh, Mama" her daughter cried---
Oh, my daughter hold my hand-
I'm your mother, but not by name-
But, God knows I loved you all the same---
Oh, my daughter hold my hand-
(Oh, my daughter) hold my hand-
I'm your mother, but not by name-
But, God knows I loved you all the same
Oh, my darling hold my hand-

The road I'm on is long and dark.
I don't run.  And, I don't walk.
I close my eyes.  So, I can see.
Back in time.  Where I long to be.
Sitting there on that old porch swing.
Where we held hands.  And, he'd sing to me.
The smell of roses fill the air.
He planted them when we moved there.

Now, the road I'm on is long and dark.
I don't run.  And, I don't walk.
I lay down with my broken heart.
Frozen still.  I fall apart.
Can't close my eyes, less I see,
the day that Death took him from me.
I look around for a place to hide
from the hurt trapped deep inside.

Mercy.  Mercy.  Free My Soul.
I try so hard, but, I can't let go.
Take from me these thoughts I own.
Mercy.  Mercy.  Guide Me Home.
Cause, I'm not here.  And, I'm not there.
Can't find myself anywhere.
Mercy.  Mercy.  Guide Me On.
Help me find where I belong.

Now, the road I'm on has the brightest sky;
crystal blue.  Just like his eyes.
Oh, and, I can see that old porch swing.
Where we held hands.  And, he'd sing to me.
The smell of roses fill the air.
He planted them when we moved here.

Mercy.  Mercy.  Freed My Soul.
Helped me find where I belonged.
Mercy.  Mercy.  Soothed My Soul.
Brought me back to my
Home Sweet Home.

Now, the road I'm on has the brightest sky;
crystal blue.  Just like his eyes.

My today is gonna be better than it was yesterday.
When I was drowning in my sorrow.
Drowning in my pain.
Oh, I was weak and weary.
Would not pray for strength.
Lost my faith along the way,
giving the Lord some blame.

But.
My today is gonna be better than it was yesterday.
Cause, I'm standing up and fighting 
for the light of a brand new day.
I'm reaching out to glory.
Taking back my faith.
So, my today is gonna be brighter than it was yesterday.

Yes, I was weak and weary.
Full of sorrow full of pain.
Lost my faith along the way.
Giving the Lord some blame.

But.
My today is gonna be better than it was yesterday.
Cause, I'm standing up and fighting 
for the light of a brand new day.
I'm reaching out to Glory.
Taking back my faith.
So, my today is gonna be brighter than it was yesterday.

Yes, I was weak and weary.
Full of sorrow.
Full of pain.
Lost my faith along the way
giving the Lord some blame.

But.
My today is gonna better than it was yesterday.
Cause, I'm standing up and fighting
for the light of a brand new day.

I wrote a version of this song a few months before my husband's death.  Then, shortly before he died we rewrote it together.  This is how he imagined, or wanted it to be, when he returned to be with the Lord once again.
I'm going home to see my Father.
Time for me shall be no more.
Oh, I been falling down this mountain;
for so very, very long.

Now, I'm going home over yonder.
I'm going home to see my Lord.
They'll be no pain in my tomorrows.
When I reach Heaven's Shore.

Now, I'm going home to see my Father.
I'm going home where I belong.
I think I hear the angels calling.
"Child come home.  Child come home".

I do not seek a hill top mansion.
Nor, to walk on streets of gold.
I just want to see my loved ones.
Who left my world so long ago.

Oh, I can hear the angels calling.
"Come home.  Come home.
Yea who are weary, come home.
Softly and tenderly Jesus is calling.
Calling, my child, come home".

i'm going home

I'm going home

I been crying so long.
Oh, so very, very long.
I can't remember
whatever went wrong
so very wrong.
Tomorrows, yesterdays.
Sunshine or rain.
Be no difference
no, difference to me.
Feeling the same.

Cause, I been crying so long.
Oh, so very, very long.
I can't remember
whatever went wrong
And, I don't care to know.
Don't you dare tell me so.
Who I lost.
Who I loved.
Who I held in my arms.
Back when I caught the blues.
The "make me a fool".
I never even loved you anyway.
Kind of blues,

I said I don't care to know.
Don't you dare tell me so.
What I know
that you know
that I know.
About that road
called a long time ago.

How I caught the blues.
How you made me a fool.
On that road called a long time ago.

As you walked away
you stopped
just to say
"I never even loved you anyway".

I said I don't care to know
Don't be telling me so.
What I know
that you know
that I know.
Where I caught the blues.
That keeps me a fool.
That never
never
loved you
anyway.

Have you ever been betrayed
 by simple words that someone said?
Has your truth been disguised
 hidden away by someone's lies?

Has your soul

       Has your soul ever cried?

     Has your soul

Have you ever been betrayed?
Was your truth stole away?

Has your soul

       Has your soul ever cried?
Has your soul.
     Has your soul
        ever cried?
