1
I never shall forget the day
2
I heard my dear old mother say
3
'I'm leaving now the old home dear,
4
Remember Jack your mother's prayer. ''
5
She left me as the golden sun
6
Behind the hill top it did hide
7
And when I found that she had gone
8
I laid my guitar down and cried.
9
Chorus:
10
And now she's gone this world is drear
11
I long to have dear mother here
12
She's gone to join the angels there
13
I'll not forget my mother's prayer.
14
The birds were still, no sound was made
15
The organ sad but sweetly played
16
As by her side we gathered there
17
Our heads bowed down in silent prayer.
18
We laid here where the fragrant rose
19
Was blooming o'er her lonely grave
20
And now in answer to her prayer
21
I'll meet dear mother some sweet day.
22
Chorus:
23
And now she's gone this world is drear
24
I long to have dear mother here
25
She's gone to join the angels there
26
I'll not forget my mother's prayer...
