How sweet and happy seem, those days of which I dream |
|
Memory I recall now and then |
|
And with what repture sweet, my weary heart will beat |
|
If I could hear my mother pray again |
|
If I could only hear my mother pray again |
|
If I could hear her sweet, tender voice as then |
|
How happy I would be, it would mean so much to me |
|
If I could hear my mother pray again |
|
Around the old home place, her patient smiling face |
|
Was always bringing comfort, hope and cheer |
|
And when she used to sing to her eternal king |
|
It was the sound I loved to hear |
|
If I could only hear my mother pray again |
|
If I could hear her sweet, tender voice as then |
|
How happy I would be, it would mean so much to me |
|
If I could hear my mother pray again |
|
She used to pray that I, on Jesus would rely |
|
And always walked the shining gospel way |
|
Her work on earth is done, the life crown has been won |
|
And now she's at rest with Him above |
|
If I could only hear my mother pray again |
|
If I could hear her tender voice as then |
|
How happy I would be, it would mean so much to me |
|
If I could hear my mother pray again |
|
If I could only hear my mother pray again |
