Tell Mother I'll Be There
Author: C. M. F. Hymnal: Timeless Truths #373 Meter: 14.14.14.10 with refrain First Line: When I was but a little child, how well I recollect Refrain First Line: Tell mother I’ll be there, in answer to her prayer Lyrics: 1 When I was but a little child, how well I recollect
How I would grieve my mother with my folly and neglect;
And now that she has gone to Heav’n I miss her tender care:
O Savior, tell my mother I’ll be there!
Refrain:
Tell mother I’ll be there, in answer to her prayer;
This message, blessed Savior, to her bear!
Tell mother I’ll be there, Heav’n’s joys with her to share;
Yes, tell my darling mother I’ll be there.
2 Though I was often wayward, she was always kind and good;
So patient, gentle, loving when I acted rough and rude;
My childhood griefs and trials she would gladly with me share:
O Savior, tell my mother I’ll be there! [Refrain]
3 When I became a prodigal, and left the old rooftree,
She almost broke her loving heart in mourning after me;
And day and night she prayed to God to keep me in His care:
O Savior, tell my mother I’ll be there! [Refrain]
4 One day a message came to me, it bade me quickly come
If I would see my mother ere the Savior took her home;
I promised her, before she died, for heaven to prepare:
O Savior, tell my mother I’ll be there! [Refrain] Scripture: Jeremiah 31:19 Tune Title: [When I was but a little child, how well I recollect]
