If I could hear my mother pray again

How sweet and happy seem

Those days of which I dream

When memory oh calls them now and then

And with what rapture sweet

My weary heart would beat

If I could hear my mother pray again

If I could hear my mother pray again

If I could hear her tender voice again

So 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 walk the shining gospel way

So trusting in His love

I'm seekin' that home above

Where I shall meet my mother some sweet day

Lord If I could hear my mother pray again

If I could hear her tender voice again

So 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 her tender voice as then

So happy I would be would mean so much to me

If I could hear my mother pray again

If I could hear my mother pray again
