[Verse 1]
When I reach my home eternal
Reach that city bright and fair
When I stand among the angels
Will my mother know me there

[Chorus]
Yes, I know that she will know me
In those mansions bright and fair
Mother's love can ne'er forget me
And I'm sure she'll know me there

[Verse 2]
I have changed with the changing seasons
I am bent with toil and care
When I stand among the angels
Will my mother know me there

[Chorus]

[Verse 3]
All for me my mother wrestled
When she used to kneel in prayer
Do you think she has forgotten
Will my mother know me there
[Chorus]

[Verse 4]
Mother's face has been a beacon
O'er the sea of deep despair
I shall look for her up yonder
Will my mother know me there

[Chorus]
