Lyrics If I Could Hear My Mother Pray Again

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
How glad I would be with who means 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'll seek that home above
For I shall meet my mother some glad day

If I could hear my mother pray again
If I could hear her tender voice as then
How glad I would be with who means so much to me
If I could hear my mother pray again
