Oh Those Tombs

Well I went walking along
In a lonely graveyard
When a voice from the tomb seemed to say
I once lived as you lived
Walked and talked as you talk
But from earth I was soon called away
Oh those tombs (Oh those tombs)
Lonely tombs (Lonely tombs)
Seem to say in a low gentle tone
Oh how sweet (Oh how sweet)
Is the rest (Is the rest)
Of my beautiful heavenly home
Every voice from the tomb
Seemed to whisper and say
Living man, you must soon follow me
And I thought as I looked
Upon those cold marble slabs
What a dark and lonely place it must be
Oh those tombs (Oh those tombs)
Lonely tombs (Lonely tombs)
Seem to say in a low gentle tone
Oh how sweet (Oh how sweet)
Is the rest (Is the rest)
Of my beautiful heavenly home
Well I went to the place
Where my mama had been laid
And a silence it stood by her tomb
And her voice seemed to say in a low gentle tone
I am safe with my savior at home
Oh those tombs (Oh those tombs)
Lonely tombs (Lonely tombs)
Seem to say in a low gentle tone
Oh how sweet (Oh how sweet)
Is the rest (Is the rest)
Of my beautiful heavenly home
Oh those tombs (Oh those tombs)
Lonely tombs (Lonely tombs)
Seem to say in a low gentle tone
Oh how sweet (Oh how sweet)
Is the rest (Is the rest)
Of my beautiful heavenly home
Of my beautiful heavenly home
