[00:00.71]Let me tell you about a man Tommy Collins [00:05.85]A veteran in country music [00:07.83]Who interrputed his career by his own choice [00:11.39]To become a minister and by the way [00:14.36]I understand he was very successful [00:17.71]And during this period of his life [00:19.76]Tommy pasteured a small Baptist church [00:22.86]In the very small town of Lincoln California [00:27.32]And it was during this time [00:29.27]That he was called upon to speak at a funeral [00:32.91]And the poem I want to recite [00:34.33]For you now is a true experience of Tommy's [00:38.93]And it's simply called The Funeral [00:52.55]A funeral is always a saddening thing [00:56.27]For everybody is somebody to someone [01:01.27]But some funeral scenes chill you to the bone [01:05.24]And one day in our town we had one [01:09.12]A very young mother had died [01:10.92]Something that you just don't expect [01:13.88]And the shops and stores had [01:16.19]All closed their doors [01:19.01]They did it out of love and respect [01:23.32]And in the crowded funeral home that day [01:25.14]With everyone present weeping [01:28.02]The sound of a little girl's voice was heard [01:31.60]She said That's my mommie [01:33.79]She's sleeping [01:36.80]Then I heard the sound of [01:37.87]Her little feet tap tap tap [01:42.31]As she made her way down the aisle [01:45.21]Her little purse dangled from her tiny wrist [01:48.19]And it brushed her best Sunday dress [01:51.61]And she boldly asserted the confidence [01:54.14]That little folks like her possess [01:57.91]To the life that has no final chapter [02:00.49]There's no ending and no last mile [02:04.76]The preacher and the rest were petrified [02:08.16]But on the little girl's face was a smile [02:12.16]She said wake up mommie wake up [02:16.06]And still not satisfied [02:18.72]She reached out with her little hand [02:20.83]And touched her face and cried [02:25.53]Then the broken hearted daddy spoke [02:27.28]With a gentleness and with power [02:31.23]And the words that issued from his lips [02:33.70]Was the sermon for the hour [02:38.20]In a child like faith he told her [02:41.64]That the dead in Christ will rise [02:46.20]God gave us his word he said [02:49.22]And we know he never lies [02:53.81]We can't wake up our sleeping mommie [02:57.72]But we know someone who can [03:02.16]Baby only God can wake up mommie [03:08.01]Let's go home and leave her in his hands
