Supper time
I should set the table
ÔÇÖcause itÔÇÖs supper time
Somehow IÔÇÖm not able
ÔÇÖcause that man oÔÇÖmine
AinÔÇÖt cominÔÇÖ home no more
Supper time
Kids will soon be yellinÔÇÖ
For their supper time
HowÔÇÖll I keep from tellinÔÇÖ
Them that man oÔÇÖmine
AinÔÇÖt cominÔÇÖ home no more?
HowÔÇÖll I keep explaininÔÇÖ when they ask me where heÔÇÖs gone?
HowÔÇÖll I keep from cryinÔÇÖ when I bring their supper on?
How can I remind them to pray at their humble board?
How can I be thankful when they start to thank the lord
Lord!
Supper time
