How sweet and happy seemed 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
C

She used to pray that I on Jesus would rely

And always walk the shining gospel way

So trusting in His love I’ll seek that home above

For 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

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
