LOOK WHAT I TRADED
by The Gospel Rays

I once heard a story of a sainted old mother,
Who had lived out her life here on earth;
As she lay on her death bed her friends gathered 'round her,
And these were the last words she said.

Oh, look what I traded for a mansion,
Oh, look what I'm leaving behind;
Oh, look who will be there to greet me,
When I step in God's sweet Paradise.

I'm leaving behind all my sorrows,
I'm leaving behind all my cares;
For I traded it all for a mansion,
That Jesus has gone to prepare.

Her hands were so feeble her voice was so low,
But she still had a smile on her face;
She said I hear singing, Oh, they're waiting for me,
As she looked up to heaven and said.

Oh, look what I traded for a mansion,
Oh, look what I'm leaving behind;
Oh, look who will be there to greet me,
When I step in God's sweet Paradise.

I'm leaving behind all my sorrows,
I'm leaving behind all my cares;
For I traded it all for a mansion,
That Jesus has gone to prepare.

Oh, look what I traded for a mansion.

I've looked for this song for years. I would really like to have the chords or fiddle tab for it.
Thanks

That's one of my all time favorite songs. It was sung at my dads funeral

so I can't find the sheet music anywhere. Has it ever been published? there's a lot of YouTube videos of people singing it. Looks like someone would write it up .
