That Beautiful Picture Songtext

von Roy Acuff

Last night by the fireside dreaming
In a beautiful vision of home
I saw the bright angels of glory
Up there around the white throne

Was Jesus calling from heaven
To me while there alone
That beautiful picture He gave me
Of mother up there by the throne

My mother I'm sure is in heaven
I saw her up there by the throne
She smiled at me when she saw me
From her place in that beautiful home

Was Jesus calling from heaven
To me while there alone
That beautiful picture He gave me
Of mother up there by the throne

Someday I know I will join her
In heaven around the white throne
For Jesus spoke to me softly
That night by the fireside alone

Was Jesus calling from heaven
To me while there alone
That beautiful picture He gave me
Of mother up there by the throne
