Mother I Thank You Lyrics

Mother I'm leaving and I'm proud to go

Please don't be grieving I love you so

Here in this pocket over my heart

Is the Bible you gave me, your gift as we part.

My country needs me, you know that's true

Pray for me mother, till this war is through

God will protect me, you must be brave

Mother, I thank you for the Bible you gave.

--- Instrumental ---

Mother, I'm writing this letter to say

I love my Bible I read it each day

And when I read it my body's drawn near

The blessed scripture they love to hear.

Midst all this turmoil of earthly things

What peace and comfort the Holy word brings

Mother, don't worry I will be saved

Mother, I thank you for the Bible you gave.

Mother the battle just has been won

You'll have a hero now for a son

I have been wounded, left there for dead

That God in his mercy spared me instead.

My Bible saved me, it played it's part

It's stopped the bullet aimed at my heart

Your blessed present, my life has saved

Motherm I thank you for the Bible you gave...
