I Heard My Mother Praying for Me

Last night as I lay down to sleep
I heard someone begin to weep
I looked around just to see
I heard my mother praying for me
She was kneeling by her bed
Tears of pain were being shed
She said dear God please hear my plea
I heard my mother praying for me
I took my Bible and sat down
And in the Holy book I found
The way to end this misery
Thank God my mother prayed for me
Thank God my mother prayed for me
Thank God my mother prayed for me
Thank God my mother prayed for me
