As a boy I learned of Jesus 

With my mother here at home

Gathered there around the fireside

Mother taught us right from wrong



   Happy days I still remember

   With a mother long gone on

   Now rejoicing with the angels (up in heaven)

   Mother's footsteps guide me on



Mother's love will always guide us

As I journey on and on

There will be a great reunion

Mother's footsteps guide me on
