Song Lyrics
My mother was a beauty, raven hair with sapphire eyes.
Her voice was like pure honey, liquid gold and all sunlight.
Lark with a melody softly sings at dawn.
Songbirds join in harmony notes so clear and strong.
Honey for my soul, sweet honey for my soul.
The songs she sang so pure and sweet are
Honey for my soul.
The roses in her garden, fiery red and pink and gold,
The colors of the sunset, she loved to watch unfold.
She taught me how to sing and play all the songs within her heart.
Brings me joy and comfort now that we’re apart…and she was
Honey for my soul, sweet honey for my soul.
The songs she sang so pure and sweet are
Honey for my soul.
In my daddy’s pasture tiny angels wait,
To hear her sing each morning, to open Heaven’s gate.
She’s singing with the songbirds high up in the trees,
Hymns of praise and glory,
She’s free…she’s free…she’s free…and she was
Honey for my soul, sweet honey for my soul.
The songs she sang so pure and sweet are
Honey for my soul.
Honey for my soul, sweet honey for my soul.
The songs of love so pure and sweet are
Honey…sweet honey…for my soul.
