Little Bessie Songtext

Little Bessie (key of B)

Hug me closer, mother closer
Put your arms around me tight
For I am cold and tired, dear mother
And I feel so strange tonight

Something hurts me here, dear mother
Like a stone upon my breast
And I wonder, mother wonder
Why it is I cannot rest

All the day while you were working
And I lay upon my bed
I was trying to be patient
And to think of what you said


Just before the lamps were lighted
Just before the children came
While the room was very quiet
I heard someone call my name

Come up here, my little Bessie
Come up here and live with me
Where little children never suffer
Through the long eternity

In the silent hour of midnight
In the silence calling me
Laying on her mother′s bosom
Little Bessie fell asleep

Now up yonder at the portals
That are shining very fair
Little Bessie now is tended
By her savior's loving care
