(Jah bless)
Oh, mother, hear my cry from far away.
I am standing on the distant shore
Thinking of the love you gave and more
Davies and the wings are flying high
But tears are falling from my heavy eye
I know the miles keep us apart today
But in my heart, you are never far away.
Please stay strong for me, oh mother dear
Jah bless your heart and wipe away the tear
Though I am far away, I pray each day
That God will see you through and light your way
Yes, God will see you through, easy now.
I am crying deep inside but I hold on
Hoping for the rising of the sun
Your strength is like a shield that keeps me brave
Across the mountains and the ocean wave
We will rise up, yes we will stand tall
With faith in Jah, we will never fall.
Please stay strong for me, oh mother dear
Jah bless your heart and wipe away the tear
Though I am far away, I pray each day
That God will see you through and light your way.
Stay strong, mother.
God sees you through, one love.
