The Blind Childs Prayer |
Oh father tonight they say you are, |
To wed another bride, |
That you will hold her in your arms, |
Where my dear mother died. |
They say her name is Mary too, |
The name my mother bore, |
But Father is she kind and true, |
Like the one we loved before. |
And is her footstep soft and light, |
Her voice so meek and mild, |
And father do you think she’ll love, |
Your blind and helpless child. |
Oh father do not bid me come, |
To welcome your newmade bride, |
I could not greet her in the room, |
Where my dear mother died. |
But when I’ve cried myself to sleep, |
As I so often do, |
Into my chamber you may creep, |
My new made mama and you. |
He turned away to leave the room, |
A joyful cry was given, |
He turned about and he knew at last, |
His blind child had gone to Heaven. |
They buried her by her mother’s side, |
And erected a marble square, |
And there on the tomb these words do read, |
She’ll not be blind up there. |
