Oak Tree

Bury me by the oak tree
My heart and my soul’s free
Go ahead and dry your eyes,
I’m headed to the better side

So, bury me by the oak tree
My heart and my soul’s free
Ash to ash and dust to dust
In God alone I’ve put my trust

And I’m flying high right above the mountainside
And I knew when I died I’d meet the man who gave his life
Ohhh his life, gave his life mhmmmm

Bury me by the oak tree
The wood and the dirt’s free
No need to wear any black
The good Lord took me back

So, bury me by the oak tree
The wood and the dirt’s free
My bones rest beneath this ground
Once was lost but now I’m found

And I’m flying high right above the mountainside
And I knew when I died I’d meet the man who gave his life
Ohhh his life Gave his life mhmmmm

Now he holds my hand, as we walk through the promised land
