My father heard my mother say this when she got the news that she was going to die from glioblastoma.We wrote this one together
Lyrics
" I'm Gonna Have A New Body "(grasspel melody)
I'm gonna have a new bo-dy (sung accapello with quartet voices)
pause 4 seconds then intro with bluegrass melody)
I can still hear my mother talkin
bout a body she'll have someday,
when she leaves this 'ol earth, for her second rebirth
in a place far far away
(chorus)
I'm gonna have a new bo-dy( body)
as promised by my Lord,
I'm gonna have a new bo-dy yes
so Gabriel blow your horn
She said this old one I've got is worn out
and it's way beyond repair,
but the new one I'll have, won't need pills or salve
it will last forever there
(chorus)
I'm gonna have a new bo-dy ( body)
as promised by my Lord,
I'm gonna have a new bo-dy yes
so Gabriel blow your horn
****music breaks****
(fast bluegrass banjo, fiddle, dobro leads)
Then one day at her house her time came
as I held her by the hand
then she looked at me, said soon I'll be free
when I reach gloryland
(chorus)
I'm gonna have a new bo-dy( body)
as promised by my Lord,
I'm gonna have a new bo-dy yes
so Gabriel blow your horn
I'm gonna have a new bo-dy( body)
as promised by my Lord,
I'm gonna have a new bo-dy yes
now that I've been reborn
