"Death Is Only A Dream" lyrics - THE CARTER FAMILY

THE CARTER FAMILY
"Death Is Only A Dream"

Sadly we sing and with tremulous breath
That we stand at the mystical stream
Through the valley inside the dark river of death
And yet it's no more than a dream

Only a dream, only a dream
Of glory beyond the dark stream
How peaceful the slumber, how happy the waking
For death is only a dream

Prepare me, my savior, prepare me, I pray
To cross o'er this terrible dark stream
O lead me and guide me and be near my side
It'll be nothing more than a dream

Only a dream, only a dream
Of glory beyond the dark stream
How peaceful the slumber, how happy the waking
For death is only a dream
