Ben Harper - If I Could Hear My Mother Pray Again Lyrics
*** this is how it was written in an old song book I haveIf I could hear my mother pray againHow sweet and happy seem, those days of which I dreamMemory recalls them now and thenAnd with what rapture sweet, my weary heart will beatIf I could hear my mother pray againChorusIf I could only hear my mother pray againIf I could hear her, tender voice as thenHow glad I would be, twould mean so much to meIf I could hear my mother pray againWithin the old home place, her patient smiling faceWas always spreading comfort, hope and cheerAnd when she used to sing to her eternal kingIt was the angels loved to hearShe used to pray that i, on jesus would relyAnd always walked the shining gospel waySo trusting still his love I seek that home above.Where I shall meet my mother some glad day.Her work on earth is done, the life crown has been wonAnd 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.
