I ought to love my mother

Hymnal: The New Sabbath School Hosanna #121 (1870) Lyrics: 1 I ought to love my mother: She loved me long ago; There is on earth no other That ever loved me so. When a weak babe, much trial I cause her, and much care; For me no self-denial, Nor labor did she spare. 2 When in my cradle lying, Or on her loving breast, She gently hush'd my crying, And rock'd her babe to rest; When any thing has ail'd me, To her I told my grief; Her fond love never fail'd me In finding some relief. 3 What sight is that which, near me, Makes home a happy place, And has such power to cheer me!-- It is my mother's face. What sound is that which ever Makes my young heart rejoice With tones that tire me never?-- It is my mother's voice. 4 When she is ill, to tend her My daily care shall be: Such help as I can render Will all be joy to me. Though I can ne'er repay her For all her tender care, I will honor and obey her While God our lives shall spare. Tune Title: MOTHER'S LOVE
