GC C7
NTRO: ... (Notes to last line of first verse)
CHORUS
F C
Take this message to my mother
G7
It will fill her heart with joy
C G7
Tell her that I've met my Saviour
C
God has saved her wand'ring boy.
C G7
The tears and sorrow I have caused her
C
How I wish I could re- pay
G7
But tell her I'll be waiting for her
C C7
We'll meet in heaven some glad day. ...
How she cried when I left her
I know it filled her heart with pain
She said, "Son, please don't leave me
For we may never meet again."
CHORUS
Years have passed since that parting
But I know she waits and prays
Soon I'll cross that dark river
Please let her know that I was saved.
CHORUS
