Hymn 406 MY MOTHER’S PRAYER Lyrics

1. I never can forget the day
I heard my mother kindly say.
“You’re leaving now my tender care;
Remember, child, your mother’s prayer

Chorus: (1-3)
Whene ‘er I think of her so dear,
I feel her gentle spirit near;
A voice comes floating on the air,
Reminding me of mother’s prayer

2. I never can forget the voice
That always made my heart rejoice;
Tho’ I have wandered, God knows where
Still I remember mother’s prayer

3. Tho’ years have gone, I can’t forget
Those words of love I hear them yet;
I see her by the old arm chair,
My mother dear in humble prayer

4. I never can forget the hour felt the
Saviour’s cleansing power, My sins and guilt
He canceled there,
‘Twas there He answered mother’s prayer

Chorus: (4)
Oh praise the Lord for saving grace;
We’ll meet up yonder face to face:
The home above together share,
In answer to my mother’s prayer
