Sam From Birmingham
by White Stones

Album: White Stones

Once a seed was planted, a miracle of the Lord.
A child who had a future, a child that God adored.
He had a name and a calling, the Lord would guide and teach.
His name Sam from Birmingham, and He’d called this seed to preach.

But the mother of Sam from Birmingham was busy with her career.
And Sammy’s father traveled a lot from New York and back to here.
They wanted children someday, but just didn’t have the time.
His mom was very busy, and Dad’s work was way behind.

The procedure was very simple, and it only took a while.
Sammy’s pain was brief, and Mom took it with a smile.
But the Lord was greatly grieving, as Dad carried home his wife.
And the angels were sadly weeping, as they took this preacher’s life.

Hush little baby, don’t you cry.
Daddy’s gonna take to the sweet by and bye.
Hush little baby, don’t you cry.
Daddy’s gonna take you home.

Hush little baby, don’t you cry.
Daddy’s gonna take to your home on high.
Hush little baby, don’t you cry.
Daddy’s gonna take you home.
