The Stanley Brothers — A Vision Of Mother lyrics

Lyrics

Oft my thoughts drift back to childhood
To the times when I was free
As I played before the fireside
Round my darling mother’s knee
There’s a blessed home up yonder
Where my loved ones wait for me I saw mother in a vision
Kneeling there to pray for me Then one day our mother left us Daddy said she’d gone to rest
I remember how she loved me As she clutched me to her breast
Some sweet day I’ll meet you mother
Your little boy is coming home
To see you as in days of childhood
The one you loved and left alone
