George Jones - When Mama Sang (The Angels Stopped To Listened) Lyrics






Mama didn't have special trainin'
She couldn't read the music, just the words
But when she'd stand to sing on Sunday mornin'
She had the sweetest voice I think I've, I've ever heard.

She loved to sing the songs about our Savior
"There is a Fountain", was her favorite one
And I've seen tears run down the cheeks of sinners
By the time my mama's song was done.

When mama sang the angels stopped to listen
You could see the love light shinin' in her face
When mama sang the angels stopped to listen
Now in heaven' choir she had a special places.

[Spoken:]
You know my daddy wanted me to sing a song
The day that moma left us
And you know that little chuch
Was filled with all of mama's friends
And you know it seems we could all here mama singin'
When I could hear her sing her favorite, again.

[Sang:]
When mama sang the angels stopped to listen
You could see the love light shining in her face
When mama sang the angels stopped to listen
Now in heaven' choir she had a special places.

When mama sang the angels stopped to listen.

  17. H.... S....

    I sure loved THAT Mr Jones singing

  18. E.... Q....

    Everyone should treasure their mother while she is still here. I am a 77 year old man and I still miss my mother more than anyone knows. My mother left this earth 13 years and 7 months ago. I often ask why was she taken away from her oldest son. I always called her mother and not mam or mom and that is why I miss her most of all.

  19. B.... W....

    I fill sorry for the 300 something people that disliked this video that think they know a good song but don't they wouldn't know a good song if it slapped them in the dang face

  20. R.... A....

    Mom went home to be with the Lord in 2003. I miss her so much but I KNOW where she is. . and she was devout until she slipped into a coma......never stopped praying, never stopped celebrating the Blood of Jesus

  21. b.... s....

    absolutely awesome

  22. K.... F....

    We lost Mom to Alzheimer's a couple weeks ago. Long after forgetting our names and how to read, she remembered the words to the Gospel songs I grew up with and would sit in her rocker and sing hem over and over. I never heard this song before, but it's just what I needed right now. Dad passed 8 months ago and was a huge George Jones fan and we played him singing Amazing Grace at his funeral. I'll have to sing this one in church soon.

  38. B.... T....

    Amen, mommas are very special.

  39. l.... i....

    Today is my dear Mom's birthday! She's been singing with the angels 11 years, and I miss her so much,, she loved to sing.. today is also 16 years that grandma joined the angels..

  40. H.... B....

    I love how George sings, but singing gospel is much more greater. 💜

  41. A.... G....

Thank you for raising me and being a wonderful mother you where such a hard worker!! I'll never forget you and can't wait till I see you again!!

    Y'all are so lucky. Nobody told me my mother was sick or even dead until days afterwards. There was such confusion over the funeral arrangements that she wasn't buried until 3 months after she died. I live out of state. They couldn't even tell me when or where the funeral was to be held! Can you imagine?!!!

    She loved Jesus. I'll see her and Daddy when I get home. I miss them, but I can't wait to go home to Jesus!

    L.... A....

    At least u didn't have to watch her die in front of u be thankful for that

  50. R.... B....

    I miss my mother more ever day she is in heaven

  51. L.... C....

    Amen you need to spend all the time you can with your mom and dad because they can walk out the door and not come back home and then it's going to be to late then

  52. K.... F....

    My grandmother is 90 as I sit with her looking in her eyes as I sing these songs to her she lights up so beautiful and I struggle to hold back my tears I've watched her for years lay in that just so contently,as if she's never going to leave her grandkids here alone.I don't quite understand what is keeping her here for so many years to be watch her children die one by one,jesus sends his best angels to make sure they were never alone on the journey home.grampaw is one of them to make sure no one gets lost.He is a doll oh if you had seen him through mine eyes maybe you're understand as he waits on that mountain ,until were all together again he will rest not.me n my grams have beautiful talks when we get a chance just her and me.she talks about how we are going to be.one sweet day.so I'm with her each day,fear to go far.for she may be gone before I make it back.Ive met alone of Grama's n mother's yet there are none as great as always she's been to us.my rock I love you.

    BTW / FYI - today date is june 17, 2017.... For me - this is REAL country music!! There is not that many lines in the song, many of them go "on repeat".. Yet - still - It has such a GREAT MESSAGE.... Whatever happend to country music like this?? When did it turn from this kind of music to what we today call "country" ? ? ? When did Country music turn from "a song with a message and a meaning" to "music about girls shaking their things, and boys wanting to hit that" ? Call me old fashioned if you like - but for me THIS IS COUNTRY MUSIC! I am born in '81 - breast-fed on Elvis, Dolly Parton and Springsteen - BUT when I want - no.. when I need REAL country - THIS is what I am talking about... Howcome there is hardly any musicians out there with their "country music" these days - that sing like this? That have songs like this? Songs with MEANING!!! There still is hope for a few of the "younger generation of country music singers" - but by golly - these few are getting slimmer and slimmer , and fewer and fewer.... In closing I would like to say a BIG - no - HUGE !! - Thank You to Mz. Dolly Parton and Kris Kristofferson and Willie Nelson!! Say whatever you want : THEY, at least STILL keeps it real!!

  98. w.... b....

    George Jones is a musical icon. what a man. he taught me how to appreciate good ole country
