Mawmaw's Song (In the Sweet by and By) Lyrics

Seven years old upon my knees
On the third row pew trying to see
My grandmamma sing In the Sweet By and By
It wasn't the sweetest soundin' thing
But there's somethin' about when grandmamma sang
That moved your feet and stirred something up inside
To see her grin from ear to ear
One thing for sure was very clear
This wasn't just a song
It was her life

In the sweet by and by, We shall meet on that beautiful shore
In the sweet by and by, We shall meet on that beautiful shore

The times have changed to say the least
My grandmamma's voice, a memory
Just like the old song says she's on that shore
And if she's looking down on me
I hope she's proud of what she sees
Cause thanks to her I'm walkin' with the Lord
Oh to hear her once again, Wrap herself around that hymn
Lord, If I could just go back once more

In the sweet by and by, We shall meet on that beautiful shore
In the sweet by and by, We shall meet on that beautiful shore
There's a land that is fairer than they
By faith we can see it afar
For the Father waits over the way
To prepare us a dwelling place there
Oh I can hear her, singing along

In the sweet, by and by, We shall meet on that beautiful shore
In the sweet, by and by, We shall meet on that beautiful
Sweet, by and by, We shall meet on that beautiful shore
In the sweet, by and by, We shall meet on that beautiful shore
We shall meet on that beautiful shore
