Lyrics
Refrain
Wonderful day of days, once more to gaze
Into your eyes that shine
And be at rest close to your breast
And feel your arms entwine
Wonderful joy of joys to hear your voice
And kiss your lips divine
‘Tis Heaven, dear, to know you’re near
Thank God! you’re here, Mother mine
2. Why are you praying, Mother mine?
You seem to tremble with fear
What are you saying, Mother mine?
You can’t realize I’m here
Cling to me closer, Mother mine
And bring back mem’ries of yore
Sorrow and pain were not in vain
Now that you smile once more
