Hank Williams — Message To My Mother

[Verse 1] The struggle for life would soon be over A young man on his death bed lay He raised his head in dying anger And this is what I heard him say [Verse 2] Take this message to my mother It will fill her heart with joy Tell her that I've met my Savior God has saved her wandering boy [Verse 3] The tears and sorrow I have caused her How I wish I could repay But tell her I'll be waiting for her We'll meet in heaven some glad day [Verse 4] 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 [Verse 5] 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
