You Love Me Best (Holcomb Ellie)

My mother, she holds me When I'm weak, she consoles me My troubles weigh on her mind My tears fall down from her eyes But You, You loved me better My father, beside me Holds out his arm to guide me His wisdom waits in silence He speaks and I grow quiet But You loved me better And there may come a day When all other loves have gone away Ooo-oo-oo-oo When darkness hems me in You'll be right where You have always been Closer than the heart within my chest Because You loved me best The ring around my finger To have and hold forever It circles round like years that We've walked through joys and tears But You, but You have loved me better And there may come a day When all other loves have gone away Ooo-oo-oo-oo When darkness hems me in You'll be right where You have always been Closer than the heart within my chest Because You loved me best (You loved me best) And there will come a day When the loves we've lost will all be raised Ooo-oo-oo-oo And we will sing a song Of the One whose loved us all along The weary world will finally find her rest Because You, You You, You, have loved us best
