Mother’s gone to yon­der ci­ty,
Gone to be with an­gels fair,
And I hope some day to meet her,
With the other loved ones there.

Refrain

Yes, we’ll meet our saint­ed mo­ther,
In that home be­yond the skies,
There to live with her for­ev­er
Where we’ll speak no sad good­byes.

Thou art gone from us, dear mo­ther,
Nevermore on earth to be;
Though we miss thy gen­tle pre­sence,
Heaven’s love we wish for thee.

Refrain

Little ones, be not dis­cour­aged,
Follow Je­sus all the way;
There’ll be glad­ness for the faith­ful
In that great and glo­ri­ous day.

Refrain

While on earth, she lived for Je­sus,
Led her child­ren in the right;
When our jour­ney here is end­ed,
There with mo­ther we’ll unite.
