Mother Dear, O Pray For Me
(Traditional)
Performer(s): Perry Como
and various other artists



Mother dear, O pray for me! 
Whilst far from heav'n and thee
I wander in a fragile bark
O'er life's tempestuous sea
O Virgin Mother, from thy throne
So bright in bliss above
Protect thy child and cheer my path
With thy sweet smile of love

Mother dear, O pray for me!
Should pleasure's siren lay
E'er tempt thy child to wander far 
From Virtue's path away
When thorns beset life's devious way
And darkling waters flow
Then Mary aid thy weeping child
Thyself a mother show

Chorus 

Mother dear, remember me! 
And never cease thy care
'Till in heaven eternally
Thy love and bliss I share
