Hank Williams - 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

    This is a good song. Hank is doing harmony here, & I always thought it made a salvageable recording. Even w/Audrey's unsubtle voice blaring away on lead.

  10. D.... T....

    I play gospel music on guitar and sing at nursing homes.
    WHAT are you doing my friend?

  11. B.... B....

    Wonderful song we should love our love ones we never know that time comes

  12. G.... B....

    Would’ve been good song but his old ugly hag horrrible voice was drowning/ out his awesome voice ,,,

  13. E.... H....

    E.... H....

    Eugene Horner This is VERY much Hank Williams singing with his first Wife Audrey!

    Steve Endicott If this ain't Hank williams, then I ain't a totally blind country singer.

  14. J.... R....

    A praying mother and Jesus is an unbeatable combination.
