I Hear A Sweet Voice Calling Lyrics - Pioneering Women Of Bluegrass - Dickens

Our little girl had taken sick one evening 

As she walked home from shcool 

And then her deathbed soon claimed her 

It made us so sad and so blue 

Then she called me close to her bedside 

And whispered these words soft and low 

Tell mommy to come to me quickly 

I want to kiss you both and go 

(Refrain) 

I hear a sweet voice calling 

way up in Heaven on high 

God has made room for your daughter 

Oh mommy and daddy dont cry 

Take care of little brother 

Tell him I'm gone to rest 

I know his little heart is broken 

He's all that you have left 

Then she closed eyes forever 

Never to see us no more 

Until we meet our darlin 

On that bright and peaceful shore 

refrain 

refrain
