Lyrics
Listen, and gather 'round me children, children of a mother whose life lifted up love
Listen, and gather 'round me children, children of a mother whose life lifted up peace
A mother who taught all of her children to love and be loved by each other
Hold your sister's hand as she walks across life and look out for each other
Carry your brother's load, don't you ever, ever betray him
Go to the store, buy grandmamma a pound of love
Listen, gather 'round me children, children of a mother whose life lifted up joy
Listen, gather 'round me children, children of a mother whose life lifted up hope
A mother who taught all of her children to love and be loved by each other
Hold your baby sister's hand as she walks across life and look out for each other
Carry your brother's load, don't you ever, ever betray him
Go to the store, buy grandmamma a pound of love, I believe it's on sale
Instrumental break
Listen, gather around me children, children of a mother whose life lifted up love
Listen, gather around me children, children of a mother whose life lifted up hope
A mother who taught all of her children to love and be loved by each other
Hold your baby sister's hand as she walks across life and look out for each other
Carry your brother's load, don't you ever, ever betray him
Go to the store, buy grandmamma a pound of love
Listen, gather 'round me children, children of a mother whose life lifted up joy
Listen, gather 'round me children, children of a mother whose life lifted up peace
A mother who taught all of her children to love and be loved by each other
Hold your sister's hand as she walks across life and look out for each other
Carry your brother's load, don't you ever, ever betray him
Go to the store, buy grandmamma a pound of love
Listen, listen, listen, listen, listen, listen, listen, listen, listen, listen, listen, listen, listen, listen, listen, listen, listen, listen, listen, listen, listen, listen, oh oh oh oh ahhhh
Children of a mother whose life lifted up me
