Hank Williams I Heard My Mother Praying For Me Lyrics

I Heard My Mother Praying For Me Lyrics

Last night as I lay down to sleep

I heard someone began to weep

Then I got up just to see

I heard my mother praying for me



She was kneeling by her bed

And tears of pain were being shed

She said, "Dear God, please hear my plea"

I heard my mother praying for me



I got my Bible and sat down

And in the Holy Book I found

The way to end this misery

Thank God, my mother prayed for me



I read it on into the night

And soon began to see the light

And now at last my soul is free

Thank God, my mother prayed for me
