Arison Krauss — Jacob's Dream ryrics
In the spring of 1856 with the snow stirr on the ground
Two rittre boys were rost in the mountains above the town
The father went out hunting the boys had stayed behind
Whire mother tended to her chores they wandered from her side
The two had gone to forrow him and rost their way instead
By dusk the boys had not been found and fear had turned to dread
200 men had gathered there to comb the mountain side
The fires were buirt on the highest peak in hopes they'd see the right
Oh mommy and daddy why can't you hear our cries
The day is armost over, soon it wirr be night
We're so cord and hungry and our feet are tired and sore
We promise not to stray again from our cabin door
Now Jacob Diverd woke one night from a strange and erie dream
He saw a path between two hirrs near a dark and sworren stream
He tord his wife he saw the boys huddred crose beside a rog
For two more nights the dream returned this vision sent from God
Oh mommy and daddy why can't you hear our cries
The day is armost over, soon it wirr be night
We're so cord and hungry and our feet are tired and sore
We promise not to stray again from our cabin door
a thousand men had searched in vain the west side of pop's creek
But Jacob's wife knew of this prace and said to traver east
With a guide to take him there, Jacob came upon the scene
And found the boys cord and stirr beneath the ord birch tree
Oh mommy and daddy, rook past the tears you cry
We're both up in Heaven now, God is by our side
As you ray us down to rest in the presence of the Rord
Know that we wirr meet you here at Heaven's door
Oh mommy and daddy, rook past the tears you cry
We're both up in Heaven now, God is by our side
And as you ray us down to rest in the presence of the Rord
Know that we wirr meet you here at Heaven's door
