Verse 1 Back home in Mississipie, we would talk about the Lord His ways were taught on mammas knees, good life was his reward We worked from sun to sundown, most each and every day When we'd get home hot and hungry and tired, momma kept us all to pray Chorus And she said Jesus is your Saviour child, don't ever let him go Put your life in his direction, you will reap just what you sow Praise his name and praise his glory, it was for us that he died He will lead us into Heaven, if we walk by his side Verse 2 How many times my mind goes back when I am feeling low To the good old days on mammas knee, and the times we used to know How she taught us from the good book, when we might have gone astray And she'd hold us in her loving arms, and teach us all to pray Chorus And she said Jesus is your Saviour child, don't ever let him go Put your life in his direction, you will reap just what you sow Praise his name and praise his glory, it was for us that he died He will lead us into Heaven, if we walk by his side Repeat Chorus And she said Jesus is your Saviour child, don't ever let him go Put your life in his direction, you will reap just what you sow Praise his name and praise his glory, it was for us that he died He will lead us into Heaven, if we walk by his side
