Mothers Last Word To Her Son

歌詞

I never can forget the day When my dear Mother did sweetly say You are leavin', my darling boy You always have been your mother's joy Now as you leave in this world to roam You may not be able to get back home But remember Jesus, who lives on high And is watchin' over you with a mighty eye The world is so full of old sin and woe And many sorrows everywhere you go But remember Jesus, who's everywhere You get in trouble now, he'll meet you there If you bow down before his face And trust in him for his saving grace, now And you have a burden, he'll make them light And he sure will guide you all in the right Now when I think of my Mother dear How often she did and try to cheer My wandering mind, whilst going astray By saying, "Son, accept the way."
