Can a boy forget his mother’s prayer
When he has wandered
God knows where?
It’s down the path of death and shame
But mother’s prayers are heard the same!
Come back
my boy
come back
I say
And walk now in thy mother’s way;
And walk now in thy mother’s way.
Can a boy forget his mother’s face
Whose heart was kind and filled with grace?
Her loving voice it echoes sweet:
She waits
she longs
her boy to meet!
Can a boy forget his mother’s door
From which he wandered years before?
With tears and sighs she said
Goodbye!
Meet me
beyond the sky!
Can a boy forget that she is dead
Though many years have passed and fled?
Those tears
that prayer
that sweet Goodbye;
She waits to welcome thee on high!
