Ben Harper ~ If I Could Hear My Mother Pray Again


*** this is how it was written in an old song book i have If i could hear my mother pray again How sweet and happy seem, those days of which i dream Memory recalls them now and then And with what rapture sweet, my weary heart will beat If i could hear my mother pray again Chorus If i could only hear my mother pray again If i could hear her, tender voice as then How glad i would be, ‘twould mean so much to me If i could hear my mother pray again Within the old home place, her patient smiling face Was always spreading comfort, hope and cheer And when she used to sing to her eternal king It was the angels loved to hear She used to pray that i, on jesus would rely And always walked the shining gospel way So trusting still his love i seek that home above. Where i shall meet my mother some glad day. Her work on earth is done, the life crown has been won And she will be at rest with him above. And some glad morning, she i know will welcome me. To that eternal home of peace and love. more free lyrics

*** this is how it was written in an old song book i have

If i could hear my mother pray again

How sweet and happy seem, those days of which i dream
Memory recalls them now and then
And with what rapture sweet, my weary heart will beat
If i could hear my mother pray again
Chorus
If i could only hear my mother pray again
If i could hear her, tender voice as then
How glad i would be, ‘twould mean so much to me
If i could hear my mother pray again

Within the old home place, her patient smiling face
Was always spreading comfort, hope and cheer
And when she used to sing to her eternal king
It was the angels loved to hear

She used to pray that i, on jesus would rely
And always walked the shining gospel way
So trusting still his love i seek that home above.
Where i shall meet my mother some glad day.

Her work on earth is done, the life crown has been won
And she will be at rest with him above.
And some glad morning, she i know will welcome me.
To that eternal home of peace and love.

Globalized Sounds

Today, beautiful European and American music, an Afrobeats recorded in Lagos, can play in headphones in Tokyo; a South Korean idol group can fill an Argentine stadium to capacity. On Spotify, the playback volume of African music has increased by 500% in five years; K-pop has already transcended the Asian border and become a common language for young people all over the world; Latin music has consistently topped the streaming charts for several consecutive years. The world is getting smaller while the scope of music is expanding.

The Power of the Scene

When the lights dim and the first note is played, strangers become synchronized. The tremor when thousands sing together, and the melody that still echoes after the crowd disperses - this is an experience that no screen can convey. We look forward to the return of large-scale concerts to the essence of music, and we also look forward to small livehouses continuing to nourish the most vibrant soil of music.

Crossing Borders

Music transcends languages - even if you don't understand the lyrics, you can still shed tears or dance. It transcends cultures - the drumbeats of Nigeria and the chants of Iceland coexist under the same sky. It transcends generations - a song from half a century ago can still bring tears to the eyes of today's young people.

We Create Together

The future of global music is not determined by algorithms, nor is it monopolized by a few giants. It is shaped by every person who presses the play button. Maintain your curiosity, step out of your comfort zone. Support independent musicians and attend live performances. Seek connections through music - because we believe that a song can change a day, and music can change the world.
