Her Crown She Has Won

C                     F              C
My mother was all the whole world to me

                        D7           G7
She taught me of Jesus  there at her knees

C                             F            C
She taught me to love Him and taught me to pray

                            G7       C
And she told me from Jesus  never to stray


                         F              C
I started to wander from God’s precious way

                          D7           G7
The bright lights of sin  had lured me away

C                         F            C
But I still remember some things momma taught

                               G7            C
Of God’s loving grace with His blood we were bought


          F                          C
Now she’s gone gone  to her heavenly home

                       G7            C
Gone home to Jesus her crown she has won


                            F           C
My mother’s so heartsick to see me this way

                          D7             G7
I know pray to Jesus  for her child each day

C                    F               C
A proud mother prays until her dying day

                        G7           C
Dear God save my child  show him the way


                         F           C
Because momma prayed and God answers prayers

                         D7            G7
I’m saved and I’m lifted in his loving care

C                           F             C
I know mother’s wearing the crown she has won

                             G7           C
She’s resting with Jesus her work here is done


          F                          C
Yes she’s gone gone  to her heavenly home

                       G7            C
Gone home to Jesus her crown she has won
