While kneeling by her beside in a cottage on the hill
My mother prayed her blessing for me there
She was talking then with Jesus while everything was still
And I heard my mother call my name in prayer
Yes I heard my mother call my name in prayer
She was pouring out her heart to Jesus there
Then I gave my heart to Him and He saved my soul from sin
For I heard my mother call my name in prayer
She was anxious for her boy to be just what he ought to be
And she asked the lord to take Him in His care
Just the worlds I can’t remember but I know she prayed for me
For I heard my mother call my name in played
Then I gave my heart to Jesus and I’m living 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
