Miner's Prayer

Miner's Prayer Is Dedicated to the Memory of Luther Tibbs.

A Kentucky Coal Miner For 40 Years, and My Grandpa.

When the Whistle Blows Each Morning

And I Walk Down in That Cold, Dark Mine

I Say a Prayer to My Dear Savior

Please Let Me See the Sunshine One More Time

Chorus:

When Oh When Will It Be Over

When Will I Lay These Burdens Down

And When I Die, Dear Lord in Heaven

Please Take My Soul From 'neath That Cold Dark Ground

I Still Grieve For My Poor Brother

And I Still Hear My Dear Old Mother Cry

When Late That Night They Came and Told Her

He'd Lost His Life Down in the Big Shoal Mine

Chorus:

When Oh When Will It Be Over

When Will I Lay These Burdens Down

And When I Die, Dear Lord in Heaven

Please Take My Soul From 'neath That Cold Dark Ground

I Have no Shame, I Feel no Sorrow

If On This Earth Not Much I Own

I Have the Love of My Sweet Children

An Old Plow Mule, a Shovel and a Hoe

Chorus:

When Oh When Will It Be Over

When Will I Lay These Burdens Down

And When I Die, Dear Lord in Heaven

Please Take My Soul From 'neath That Cold Dark Ground

Yeah, When I Die, Dear Lord in Heaven

Please Take My Soul From 'neath That Cold Dark Ground
