Story behind the song
my mom passing away so suddenly...
Lyrics
We didn't get to be with her
For longer than that week
I guess he wanted her to go
At last she didn't speak
And saying all the goodbyes
Filled our eyes with tears
But she left us with a smile
We know she was far from fear
She gave me a dream I inherited that day
Something to hold on
When God took her away
I know she's looking down
I still feel her care
My mom's up in heaven
But she is far from fear
She had a will all her own
Like no one else on Earth
Her priceless way made others say
She doesn't know her worth
Her laugh was bittersweet
From the hell that she went through
Heaven is her wages
She earned every penny too
She gave me a dream I inherited that day
Something to hold on
When God took her away
I know she's looking down
I still feel her care
My mom's up in heaven
But she is far from fear
Angels have gone before me
Only they can know peace
When he takes me tomorrow
Then my dream will be true
She gave me a dream I inherited that day
Something to hold on
When God took her away
I know she's looking down
I still feel her care
My mom's up in heaven
But she is far from fear
oh..my mom's up in heaven
But she is far from fear
