Won’t You Come and Sing for Me Songtext
von Chris Thile

I feel the shadows down upon me
All the angels beckon to me
Before I go, dear sisters and brothers
Won′t you come and sing for me

Sing those hymns we sang together
In that plain little church with the benches all worn
How dear to my heart, how precious the moments
We stood shaking hands and singing a song


My burden is heavy
My way has grown weary
I have traveled a road that is long
And it would warm this old heart, my dear brother
If you'd come and sing me one song

Sing those hymns we sang together
In that plain little church with the benches all worn
How dear to my heart, how precious the moments
We stood shaking hands and singing one song

In my home beyond that dark river
Your sweet faces no more I will see
Until we meet where there′s no more sad parting
Won't you come and sing for me

Sing those hymns we sang together
In that plain little church with the benches all worn
How dear to my heart, how precious the moments
We stood shaking hands and singing a song
