How Sweet And Happy Seem Those Days Of Which I Dream,
When Memory Recalls 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 As Then!
So Glad I’d Be, ‘Twould 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 Still His Love, I Seek That Home Above,
Where I Shall Meet My Mother Some Glad Day.

Within The Old Home-Place Her Patient, Smiling Face
Was Always Spreading Comfort, Hope And Cheer;
And When She Used To Sing To Her Eternal King,
It Was The Songs The Angels Loved To Hear.

Her Work On Earth Is Done, The Life-Crown Has Been Won,
And She Will Be At Rest With Him Above;
And Some Glad Morning She, I Know, Will Welcome Me
To That Eternal Home Of Peace And Love.
