IF I COULD HEAR MY MOTHER PRAY AGAIN (John Vaughn / James Rowe) - Lyrics

IF I COULD HEAR MY MOTHER PRAY AGAIN (John Vaughn / James Rowe) Mac Wiseman - 1961 Loretta Lynn - 1965 Roy Acuff - 1966 David Houston - 1967 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 (only) hear my mother pray again If I could (only) hear her tender voice as then How glad (happy) I would be, would mean 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 (only) hear my mother pray again If I could (only) hear her tender voice as then How glad (happy) I would be, would mean so much to me If I could hear my mother pray again (Transcribed from the Loretta Lynn recording by Mel Priddle - Jan 2011)
