A Mother Who Prayed

I had a Mother who prayed.
She taught me of Jesus when I was but small,
And prayed for me daily to give Him my all.
Thank God for a Mother who prayed!

I had a Mother who prayed.
She taught by example to trust in the Lord,
And live by the Bible - her spiritual sword.
Thank God for a Mother who prayed!

I had a Mother who prayed.
There wasn’t much money, but when times were bad,
And someone was needy, we shared what we had.
Thank God for a Mother who prayed!

I had a Mother who prayed.
When I had a problem, and fear made me weak,
I knew on her knees God’s help she would seek.
Thank God for a Mother who prayed!

I had a Mother who prayed.
And now my own children have needs, so I pray
They’ll trust in the Savior, and some day might say,
"Thank God for a Mother who prayed!"
