Words and music by hank williams, sr.
Capo: 4th fret/key: b/play: g
[g] I was all alone and drifting on a lonely sea of sin
Nothing but darkness, no [a7] sunshine [d7] within
I [g] lifted my eyes, to the lord in the sky
And jesus re-[d7] membered [g] me.
Chorus
[g] jesus remembered me
And so he set me [d7] free
[g] once I was blinded, but now I can see
Glory to god, he re-[d7] membered [g] me.
Now the sun is shining, Im happy and free
No more sorrow, no troubles to see
Im going home to glory, my saviour to see
Glory to god, he rememberd me.
Chorus
When he talked to his disciples at the sea of galilee
He said hed remember a mortal like me
I asked for his blessing down on my knees
And glory to god, he remembered me.

[g] for years we both have lived on pride, [d7] dear
And we agree that love is [g] gone
Why, oh why do we keep [d7] tryin
A house without love is not a [g] home. [g7]
The [c] lovelight in your eyes has [g] faded
And Im contented just to [d7] roam
We [g] slaved to gain a worthless [d7] treasure
A house without love is not a [g] home.
No matter where our footsteps wander
I know well both be all alone
With the pride that came between us
A house without love is not a home.
The simple things have gone forever
We wanted wealth to call our own
And now weve reached the hour of parting
A house without love is not a home.

That the saints have travelled on
Paved with all the tribulations

Then give thanks for all your blessins
Get [d7] on your knees and [g] pray.

Thank God for all the [a] mountains and the [d7] seas

In this world of grief and sorrow
Filled with selfishness and greed
There remains the glory fountain
To supply our every need
You can find it in the temple
With a welcome on the door
But be sure to count your blessins
Before you ask for more.
Chorus
Be forgivin to the wayward
Like the master told us to
When he said forgive them father
For they know not what they do
They would change their way of livin
If they could but understand
