I've Just Seen The Rock Of Ages Lyrics - Flatt And Scruggs

Oh, I was standing by the bedside 

Where my fevered mother lay 

When she called me close beside her 

And I thought I heard her say 

I've just seen the rock of ages 

Jacob's ladder hanging down 

I've just crossed the river of Jordan 

Now, my son, I'm homeward bound 

Oh, as we gathered by her bedside 

Tears begin to fill our eyes 

Then she called me close beside her 

And whispered softly her good-byes 

Pine trees blowing cross the mountain 

Where forever she will lay 

There she'll rest beside the fountain 

There she'll sleep beneath the clay
