I was at a funeral recently and "send your best Angel for my Mother" was played and I would like to have the lyrics for it and can't find it. I think is was done by the Cooke Family. I thank anyone that can help me.

I hope this is the song you want. God bless!
WOULD YOU SEND YOUR BEST ANGEL FOR MY MAMA
(The Singing Cookes)

(Chorus)
Would you please send your best angel for my mama?
I don't want her to make this journey all alone.
Would you send the same one you sent for Daddy?
To make sure that my mama makes it home.

When it's time for you to call my mama,
Would you please take special care with her?
And dear Lord, would you let her die easy?
She has suffered so much here on this earth.

(Chorus)

I know she'll be a perfect angel.
She has been a perfect mama to me.
And when it's time for me to come to join them,
Lord, just send that same angel for me.
And I believe He will.....(this phrase is spoken)

(Chorus)

Tag: To make sure that my mama makes it home.

Thank you so much. It sound like it could have been written just for my own mother. I knew when I heard it that I wanted to learn it. Again thank you
