A Vision of Mother Often my memories drift back to childhood To the time when I was free As I played before the fireside Round my darling mother's knee Chorus: There's a blessed home up yonder Where my love one waits for me I saw mother in a vision Kneeling there to pray for me Then one day mother left us Daddy said she'd gone to rest I remember how she loved me As she clutched me to her breast Chorus: Some sweet day I'll meet you mother You little boy is coming home To see you as in days of childhood The one you loved and left alone Chorus:
