I was standing by my window On a cold and cloudy day When I saw the hearse come rolling For to carry my mother away. Will the circle be unbroken By and by Lord, by and by There's a better home awaiting In the sky Lord, in the sky.

Sometimes titled "Can The Circle Be Unbroken," this song is based on a gospel hymn published in 1908 with words by Ada Habershon and music by Charles Gabriel - both very prolific writers of church music. This hymn was reworked by the Carter Family and released in 1935. Part country song, part spiritual, it describes a funeral. In 1972, Nitty Gritty Dirt Band released an album called Will the Circle be Unbroken that brought together many luminaries in the world of bluegrass and country, including Doc Watson, Roy Acuff and Earl Scruggs. The three-volume set contains 42 songs recorded live on a 2-track machine. On the song "Will The Circle Be Unbroken," Mother Maybelle Carter sings the first verse, followed by Jimmy Martin on the second and Acuff on the third and Carter again for the fourth.
