Lyrics
There’s a Book that my mother gave me
That I read when the long day is through
And the stories of old, in leaves edged with gold
Guide me whatever I do
For I know in its worn old pages
I shall find peace of mind when I look
And the wisdom of all the ages
Is there in my mother’s book
Sung here by Vancha March:
