CLINCH MOUNTAIN PRAYER

I’ll say a prayer for thee
Sara and AP
As your spirits fly
With Maybelle in the sky
I’ll say a prayer for thee

You sang Clinch Mountain blues
With a heart so true
Anchored in love
With God above
You sang Clinch Mountain blues

The hills hold your songs
The trees and valleys hum
With the sweetest harmony
In joyful reverie
The hills hold your songs

In the cold Virginia wind
I feel your ghosts so near
But the echoes of old
Warm a pilgrim’s soul
In the cold Virginia wind

Your music’s in the air
Your spirit’s everywhere
More precious than gold
The Carter Fold
Your music’s in the air

Anchored in love
With God above
I’ll say a prayer for thee
