Faded Rose
by Shirley Caesar

Album: After 40 Years - Still Sweeping Through the City

Worship the Lord tonite,
Just Worship Him. Hallelujah.
He's worthy of double honor,
He's worthy of double praise.

Petal from this faded rose Mother is all I have to give,
but Mamma I tried to make you happy while you lived.
If I have a million dollars, I'd line your grave with gold,
but that wouldn't wake you from your sleep, no, no, no,.
Diamond rings Mama, and silver
but Mama I tried to give you flowers while you lived
