While kneeling by her bedside in a cottage on the hill
D
My mother prayed her blessings on me there
G C G
She was talking there to Jesus while everything was still
D G
and I heard my mother call my name in prayer
C G
Yes I heard my mother call my name in prayer
A7 D
She was pourin out her heart to Jesus there
G C G
Then I gave my heart to Him and He saved my soul from sin
D G
Yes I heard my mother call my name in prayer
G D G

She was anxious for her boy to be just what he ought to be
D
And she asked the Lord to take him in his care

Just the words I can't remember but I know she prayed for me

For I heard my mother call my name in prayer

She was pourin out her heart to Jesus there
G C G
Then I gave my heart to Him and He saved my soul from sin

So I gave my heart to Jesus and I'm livin now for him

And someday I'll go and meet him in the air

For he heard my mother praying and he saved my soul from sin

Yes he heard my mother call my name in prayer

Yes I heard my mother call my name in prayer

Then I gave my heart to Him and He saved my soul from sin
