Here's my promise to you,
angel mother
I will follow the footsteps of my dad
I will always remember you, mother,
as the best friend that I ever had.
As I go to my home, angel mother,
I can feel your sweet love everywhere.
How I long to just kneel by your bedside,
For I feel you are near me in
prayer.
In my dreams you return, mother,
To your child you have left in despair.
And you tell me the sweet life of daddy,
As you rock in your old rocking chair.
As I go to my home, angel mother,
I can feel your sweet love everywhere.
How I long to just kneel by your bed, son,
For I feel you are near me in
prayer.
I will follow the prayers you have taught me
As I travel God's pathway alone
I will walk through that past,
straight and narrow,
and will meet you in that heavenly home
As I go to my home, angel mother,
I can feel your sweet love everywhere
Now I long to just kneel by your bed, son,
For I feel you are near me in prayer.
