If I Could Hear My Mother Pray Again

by J.W. Vaughan

4/4 ()

Verse(s)

1) How Sweet and Happy Seem the Days of Which I Dream.

2) She Used to Pray That I on Jesus Would Rely,

3) Within the Old Home Place, Her Patient, Smiling Face.

4) Her Work on Earth Is Done, the Life-crown Has Been Won,

1) When Memory Recalls Them Now and Then!

2) And Always Walk the Shining Gospel Way;

3) Was Always Spreading Comfort, Hope and Cheer;

4) And She Is Now at Rest with Him Above;

1) And with What Reapture Sweet My Waeary Heart Would Beat.

2) So Trusting Still His Love I Seek That Home Above,

3) And When She Used to Sing to Her Eternal King,

4) And Some Glad Morning She I Know Will Welcome Me

1) If I Could Hear My Mother Pray Again.

2) Where I Shall Meet My Mother Some Glad Day.

3) It Was the Songs the Angels Loved to Hear.

4) To That Eternal Home of Peace and Love.

Chorus:

If I Could Hear My Mother Pray Again,

If I Could Hear Her Tender Voice as Then!

So Glad I'd Be T'would Mean So Much to Me,

If I Could Hear My Mother Pray Again.
