Mother Pray

How sweet and happy seem those days of which I dream

Memories I recall now and then

And with a rapture sweet my weary heart would beat

If I could hear my mother pray again

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

Around the old homeplace her cherishing smiling face

Was always bringing comfort joy 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 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 hear my mother pray again

If I could hear my mother pray again
