This song sums up my mothers early life, and what she would have hoped for during the depths of the depression. She grew up toiling in the many cotton fields of Arkansas they migrated to. She rocked her little sister asleep who was dying of starvation. Her father made and sold moonshine to have some money for food, but sampled a poisonous batch that put him in a coma and a mental hospital. Her mother did her best to raise five children on a meager garden. Poverty, prayers, and looking to heaven was the only life they new.
Wonderful, very touching song. Missing this group dearly!
Amen!🙌🏽👏🏽🙏🏽
