1 When I go to the home of my childhood,
Where I played when my heart was so glad;
There I find friends to give me a welcome,
But I miss my dear mother and dad.
Refrain:
Yes, I miss my Mother and Dad,
The two best friends I ever had;
They are not there today,
Where I used to play,
So I miss my dear Mother and Dad.
2 The old moss covered house is still standing,
And the yard with sweet flowers is clad;
And the birds sing as sweetly as ever,
But I miss my dear mother and dad. [Refrain]
3 Their old armed chairs are there by the fireside,
Where they taught me to shun all the bad;
I can still read the old fam’ly Bible,
But I miss my dear mother and dad. [Refrain]
4 Soon I’ll so to that home-land in Heaven,
Where we’ll never grow old or be sad;
We will be reunited for ever,
Safe with Jesus and mother and dad. [Refrain]
