Long, long ago in the days of my childhood
Fond were the memories
When I stood at mother's knee
Then she placed a kiss on my forehead
Down my the window where my mother used to playChorus:
Bear Me Away
On the breeze of the morning
Bear Me Away
To my old home far away
Let me sit down
By the old family Bible
Down by the window where
My mother used to pray
I remember as she lay on her pillow
Breathing a prayer to her
Father in the sky
Then she said, "Where He leads I must follow-
Follow my Savior where no tear may dim the eyeChorus:
Bear Me Away
On the breeze of the morning
Bear Me Away
To my old home far away
Let me sit down
By the old Family Bible
Down by the window where
My mother used to pray
Long since I stood
By her grave on the hillside
Long since they laid my dear mother
In the grave
Long since she placed
A kiss on my forehead
Down by the window
Where my mother used to pray.Chorus:
Bear Me Away Let me sit down
On the breeze of the morning By the old family Bible
Bear Me Away Down by the window
To my old home far away Where my mother used to pray
