The Stanley Brothers

Shake Hands With Mother Again

If I should be living when Jesus comes

F C

And could know the day and the hour

I'd like to be standing at mother's tomb

G7 C

When Jesus comes in His power

Twill be a wonderful happy day

F C

Up there on the golden strand

When I can hear Jesus my Savior say

G7 C

Shake hands with mother again

I'd like to say mother this is your boy

F C

You left when you went away

And now my dear mother it gives me great joy

G7 C

To see you again today
