LORD, I JUST CAN’T KEEP FROM CRYING

Lord, I just can't keep from crying sometimes
|
Lord, I just can't keep from crying sometimes
|
When my heart's full of sorrow and my eyes are filled with tears
|
Lord, I just can't keep from crying sometimes
|
|
My mother often told me, angels bonded your life away
|
She said I would accomplish, but trust in God and pray
|
I'm on the King's Highway, I'm travelin' everyday
|
|
'Cause I just can't keep from crying sometimes
|
Well, I just can't keep from crying sometimes
|
When my heart's full of sorrow and my eyes are filled with tears
|
Lord, I just can't keep from crying sometimes
|
|
My mother, she's in glory, thank God I'm on my way
|
Father, he's gone too, and sister she could not stay
|
I'm trusting Him everyday, to bear my burdens away
|
|
'Cause I just can't keep from crying sometimes
|
Well, I just can't keep from crying sometimes
|
When my heart's full of sorrow and my eyes are filled with tears
|
Lord, I just can't keep from crying sometimes
|
|
I thought when she first left me, I'd grieve a little while
|
Soon it all would be over, and I'd journey on with a smile
|
But the thought as I get older, I think of what I told her
|
|
And I just can't keep from crying sometimes
|
Well, I just can't keep from crying sometimes
|
When my heart's full of sorrow and my eyes are filled with tears
|
Lord, I just can't keep from crying sometimes
|
|
Well, well
