Mother's prayer

Author: W. H. Gardner Hymnal: Triumphant Songs No.3 #14 (1892) First Line: Of all the pray'ers that upward float Refrain First Line: O, the love and deep despair Lyrics: 1 Of all the pray’rs that upward float, Unto the loving Father’s ear; There’s none beside a mother’s lips, He bends more tenderly to hear. Refrain: Oh, the love and deep despair, Uttered in a mother’s prayer, How the scalding teardrops flow, As she tells to God her woe; Asking him for strength to bear, All her heavy load of care. 2 How many hearts as hard as flint, Are softened by her fond appeal; Ah, then they think of days gone by, When by their side she used to kneel. [Refrain] 3 A mother’s pray’r brings wanderers, From far across the stormy sea; It cleanses all the years of sin, And fills the heart with purity. [Refrain] 4 When friends forsake, and ruin stares The weary sinner in the face; The power of a mother’s pray’r, Can save him by its matchless grace. [Refrain] Topics: Love; Prayer Tune Title: [Of all the prayers that upward float]
