Tell My Mother

Author: John D. Matthews Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #16391 First Line: If you go be­fore me to the heav’n­ly home Refrain First Line: Will you tell my mo­ther dear that I’m sad and lone­ly here? Lyrics: 1 If you go be­fore me to the heav’n­ly home, Will you tell my mo­ther some time I will come? Tell her that you left me in the nar­row way, And I’ll sure­ly meet her there some hap­py day. Refrain: Will you tell my mo­ther dear that I’m sad and lone­ly here? When you meet up yon­der ’neath the heav’n­ly dome, Tell my pre­cious mo­ther I am com­ing home. 2 Tell her that I miss her, and my heart is sad, But the thought of Hea­ven, oh! it makes me glad, Just to know I’m go­ing to that realm so fair, With my pre­cious mo­ther all its joys to share! [Refrain] 3 I am press­ing on­ward to that hap­py land, There to dwell with mo­ther ’mid the ran­somed band; We shall sing to­ge­ther ’round the great white throne, And no scenes of part­ing ev­er shall be known. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [If you go be­fore me to the heav’n­ly home]
