Story behind the song
Grandpa Singin' was written about my grandpa Alf Icenhower who passed away in 1977 at the age of 96. He was a wonderful man who knew how to pray and loved his family very much....
Lyrics
Grandpa Singin' written by: Loretta Withee His Hair was kinda Ratty His Face was weathered old His smile was always present His eyes were never cold His hands were crippled slightly A cane in them he'd hold His life reflected the Fathers love And His heart was made of Gold. (CHORUS) I can still hear Grandpa Singin' Amazing Grace And with a twinkle in his eye I'll Fly Away He had Blessed Assurance For He knew the Word Love came to him on a Snow White Dove That He said was not a bird He worked long and hard on his farm all day But I never Heard Him Complain And under his breath when He was alone You could hear, "In Jesus Name" On the back porch churnin' butter He'd stop and whittle for a while When life got tough as it often does He'd rock me with a smile. (CHORUS) spoken At the age of 96 We laid grandpa to rest Folks came from miles around All dressed up in their Sunday best He had touched the lives of so very many In his own special and loving way With the gates of Heaven open wide I can still hear the Angels play I can still hear Grandpa Singin' Amazing Grace Someday we'll be together again I'll Fly Away I have Blessed Assurance I got it on good word And like Grandpa I'll be carried away On the wings of a snow white bird Like Grandpa I'll be carried away On the wings of a snow white bird...
