Текст песни: It's Just an Old Body + перевод

It’s just an old body,

No, Mother’s not there;

Her soul’s gone to heaven

To rest up there.

No pain and no sorrow

On heaven’s bright shore,

She’ll have a new body,

She’ll suffer no more.

The old man looked over to the little boy,

And his hands were trembling, and with a shake in his voice;

He said, «Son don’t you realize, your mother lies dead?»

As he walked away, that little boy said:

It’s just an old body,

No, Mother’s not there;

Her soul’s gone to heaven

To rest up there.

No pain and no sorrow

On heaven’s bright shore,

She’ll have a new body,

She’ll suffer no more.

As he stood in the graveyard in silence that day,

And mourned for our loved one that God called away.

The minister said, as comfort he gave,

«Well, that’s just an old body, that sleeps in the grave.»

It’s just an old body,

No, Mother’s not there;

Her soul’s gone to heaven

To rest up there.

No pain and no sorrow

On heaven’s bright shore,

She’ll have a new body,

She’ll suffer no more.

She’ll have a new body,

She’ll suffer no more.
