charles ives - the old mother lyrics

Loading...

my dear old mother, poor thou art
and toilest day and toilest night
but ever warm remains my heart
’twas thou my courage did’st impart
my arm of st+rdy might

thou’st wip’d away each childish tear
when i was sore distrest
and kiss’d thy little laddie dear
and taught him songs that banish fear
from ev’ry manly breast

and more than all thou’st given me
a humble true and tender heart;
so dear old mother, i’ll love thee
where e’er my foot may wander free
till death our lives shall part
mother, mother, mother
