Ntro: [g7] [c] ...[c7] (notes to last line of first verse)



Chorus

[f] take this message to my [c] mother

It will fill her heart with [g7] joy

[c] tell her that i've met my [g7] saviour

God has saved her wand'ring [c] boy.



[c] the tears and sorrow i have [g7] caused her

How i wish i could re-[c] pay

But tell her i'll be waiting [g7] for her

We'll meet in heaven some glad [c] day. ... [c7]



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.
