The Carter Family – Can The Circle Be Unbroken


The Carter Family – Can The Circle Be Unbroken MP3 Download

Sometimes titled “Can The Circle Be Unbroken,” this song is based on a gospel hymn published in 1908 with words by Ada Habershon and music by Charles Gabriel – both very prolific writers of church music. This hymn was reworked by the Carter Family and released in 1935.”

Part country song, part spiritual, it describes a funeral. We see the hearse come to take the singer’s mother away, and the slow procession to the grave site. Returning home, he feels a profound loss as he grieves with his siblings. Comfort comes from knowing she is with the Lord.

In 2005, PBS aired a documentary about the Carter Family called The Carter Family: Will the Circle Be Unbroken.
