-5    5    -3'  4   -4    4
One bright and guid-ing light
 -4    -3'  -2' -3'   4    -3'
That taught me wrong from right
4  -3' -2' 3  -2'   3   -3'
I found in my moth-er's eyes
 -5   5  4   -5    5   -5
Those ba-by tales she told
 -4   -3' -2'  -3'   3    -3'
That road all paved with gold
4  -3' -2' 3   -2'  3    -2'
I found in my moth-er's eyes

 -5   -5 -3'-3''   -5   -5  -4
Just like a wand-'ring spar-row, 
-5   5   4   -3'
one lone-ly soul
5   5    -4     3      5   5  -4
I walked the straight and nar-row 
-4  -4  -3'  4
to reach my goal
 -5    5    -3'  4  -4  4
God's gift sent from a-bove
-4 -3' -2' -3'  4   -3'
a real un-self-ish love
4  -4   -5 6   -5   6    -5
I found in my moth-er's eyes
