In My Father's House
(Are Many Mansions)
(Arranged and adapted by Elvis Presley)

In my father's house are many mansions
If it were not true he would have told me so
He has gone away to live in that bright city
He's preparing me a mansion there I know
Jesus died upon the cross to bear my sorrow
Freely died that souls like you might have new life
But I know that soon there'll come a bright tomorrow
When the world will all be free from sin and strife
(Do not shun the saviors love, from up in glory)
(Or you won't be there to sing the gospel story)
In my father's house are many mansions
If you're true then to this land you'll surely go

Like As A Father
C.D. Martin W. Stillman Martin

Chorus:
Never a moment but He is near
Never a heart cry but He will hear
Matchless in goodness God on His throne
Like as a father cares for his own.

Like as a father this is our song
Like as a father so tender and strong,
Full of compassion God on His throne
Like as a father pities His own.
(chorus)

Like as a father strong is His arm
He will protect all His children from harm.
Shield them from danger keep them each hour
Matchless in goodness boundless in pow'r.
(chorus)

Like as a father guiding in love
on thro' the world maze to glory above.
Never a moment are we alone
He like a father cares for His own.
(chorus)

Daddy Sang Bass
1968 House of Cash/Cedarwood Publishing

Chorus:
Daddy sang bass, Mama sang tenor,
me and little brother would join right in there
Singing seemed to help the troubled soul
One of these days, it wont be long
we'll be together around God's throne
and we'll join in a family circle in a little while
by and by Lord by and by
Daddy sang bass, Mama sang tenor
me and little brother will join right in there
in the sky Lord in the sky.

Verse 1
I remember when I was a lad
times were hard and times were bad.
But there's a silver lining behind every cloud
Just poor people, that's all we were.
Trying to make a living out of black land dirt
we'd get together in a family circle singin' loud.
(chorus)

Verse 2
I remember after work mama would call in all of us
You could hear singin' for a country mile
Now little brother he's done gone
I'll be joining him in a song
we'll be together again up yonder in a little while.
(chorus)

He'll Never Forget To Keep Me
F.A.G. F.A.Graves
My father has many children
Will He ever forget to keep me
He gave his own son to redeem them
And He can not forget to keep me.
He'll never forget to keep me
He'll never forget to keep me
He gave his own son to redeem me
And He'll never forget to keep me

Our father remembers the sparrow
Their value and fall doth He see
But dearest to Him are His children
And He'll never forget to keep me.
He'll never forget to keep me
He'll never forget to keep me
But dearest to Him are His children
And He'll never forget to keep me.

The words of the Lord are so priceless
How patient and watchful is He
Tho' others forget their offsprings
Yet He'll never forget to keep me.
He'll never forget to keep me
He'll never forget to keep me
Tho' others forget their offsprings
Yet He'll never forgot to keep me.

O brother why don't you accept Him
He offers salvation so free
Repent and believe and obey Him
And He'll never forget to keep thee.
He'll never forget to keep thee
He'll never forget to keep thee
Repent and believe and obey Him
And He'll never forgot to keep thee.
