Cat. #0951 (MFH #211) - As sung by Ollie Gilbert, Mountain View, Arkansas on February 9, 1970
CHORUS:
Th family who prays, never be parted
Their circle in Heaven, unbroken shall stand
God will say, enter, good faithful servant
For th family who prays, never shall part
VERSE 1
Satan has parted, Father an' Mother
Leavin' their home with unjury an' hate
Leadin th pathway down to destruction
Leavin' their children like orphants to stray
VERSE 2
Wars an' tornados have taken our loved ones
Leavin' our home with sad aches an' hearts
But we will join them over th river
For th family who prays, never shall part
