Sanngria Pittman, Toni Pittman, Jerome Pittman

I did twenty years inside the pen, but I didn't walk alone

Jesus Christ was standing by my side, and my family brought me home

Mama Mary, Benny, brother Over, you held me through the fire

I will trust in the Lord with all my heart, until the day I die

Sister Sanngria, you're a prayer warrior, you weathered every storm

You kept the faith and stood right by me, and kept this family warm

God won't put a burden on our backs that we can't bear

I look at this beautiful family, and I see His mercy there

When the Lord says it's time to come home, and my battle here is done

I’m leaving this song of love behind, from Big Country to everyone

Down at the cross, we’re blessed and we are free

Thank you for standing ten toes down with me

Sanngria, I am so proud of you, you did an outstanding job

Raising Toni and Jerome to be so obedient to God

I remember throwing Little Man and Brickney high up in the air

Wrestling on the living room floor, we had so much laughter there

Riding out to Goodwill, hitting Hope’s Closet just to shop

Vibing to the music in the car, I wished the time would stop

God won't put a burden on our backs that we can't bear

I look at this beautiful family, and I see His mercy there

When the Lord says it's time to come home, and my battle here is done

I’m leaving this song of love behind, from Big Country to everyone

Down at the cross, we’re blessed and we are free

Thank you for standing ten toes down with me

To Marcella, Lucie, Uncle Fuddy, may you rest in peace above

You showed us what it means to share a never-ending love

The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want, He leads me to the green

Through the thick and the thin, you are the truest family I’ve seen

I’ve got one more river to cross, the Jordan’s deep and wide

But I know my Savior and my family will help me to the other side

‘Cause God won't put a burden on our backs that we can't bear

I look at this beautiful family, and I see His mercy there

When the Lord says it's time to come home, and my battle here is done

I’m leaving this song of love behind, from Big Country to everyone

Down at the cross, we’re blessed and we are free

Thank you for standing ten toes down with me

Yeah, Uncle Bobby loves you all, through all eternity
