There's a voice missing in our little country choir
Rock of Ages will never sound the same
And all her singing heaven was not complete
Now mama's teaching angels how to sing

Mama's teaching angels how to sing
Heaven's always silent when mama sings
David lays down his harp and heaven's bells won't ring
When mama's teaching angels how to sing

The old home is empty, it's lonesome since she's gone
And it's hard to know she won't return again
But I'll meet her in the morning on heavens golden hills
Where mama's teaching angels how to sing

Mama's teaching angels how to sing
Heaven's always silent when mama sings
David lays down his harp and heaven's bells won't ring
When mama's teaching angels how to sing

Hello i'm sending the information you request at least a way that tells you how to go about obtaing the words to Mama's teaching angels how to sing. The song was written by Dottie Rambo. You can find a copy of the cd or cassette at the Baptist bookstore in Nashville Tn. It may be called Lifeway Center now but the telephone number is615-251-2016 or try 615-251-2500. the mail order center's number is 615-251-2094. I hope i've helped in a small way. I used to sing alot of her songs but she is still vary popular.

I think the lyrics above has an error on the third line.
According to the lyrics I have, it should be: God heard her singing. Heaven was not complete

My mom sang me to sleep with this song and now it's time to sing it to her as she lays in her hospital bed. Thank you all for this. It'll mean the world to her to hear it again......And if you pray, pray for my family and for my mom to get better. She isn't even fifty. I'm only 23 and I don't want to lose my mommy

There are several mistakes in the lyrics below. Here are the correct lyrics.

MAMA'S TEACHING ANGELS HOW TO SING

There's a voice missing in our little country choir
Rock of Ages will never sound the same.
God heard her singing, Heaven was not complete,
Now Mama's teaching angels how to sing.

Mama's teaching angels how to sing.
Heaven's halls are silent when Mama sings.
David lays down his harp and Heaven's bells won't ring,
When Mama's teaching angels how to sing.

The old home it's now empty, it's so lonesome since she's gone
And it hard to know she won't return again.
But I'll meet her in the morning on Heaven's golden hills,
Where Mama's teaching angels how to sing.
Repeat

A few more corrections, mostly in the last verse, based on the recording by the Rambos.

MAMA'S TEACHING ANGELS HOW TO SING
(Dottie Rambo)

There's a voice missing in our little country choir
'Rock of Ages' will never sound the same.
God heard her singing, Heaven was not complete,
Now Mama's teaching angels how to sing.

CHORUS
Mama's teaching angels how to sing.
Heaven's halls are silent when Mama sings.
David lays down his harp and Heaven's bells won't ring,
When Mama's teaching angels how to sing.

The old home is empty, it's lonesome since she's gone
And it's hard to know she won't return again.
But I'll meet her in the morning on Heaven's golden hills,
Where Mama's teaching angels how to sing.
