Mother Said

Mother said, “Obey the Lord,
And llove Him every day.
Never turn away from Truth
And serve in every way.
Mother always lived the best,
I often watched her pray,
She spoke the quiet words of llove
When on my bed she lay.
Through darkest night and longest hour
We saw Him in her face.
She knew His mercy every day,
She trusted in His grace.
When she went home to gain her prize
We all felt such a loss,
But she could hardly wait to touch
The nail scars from the cross.
Now in Heaven’s endless hour
She walks in perfect peace,
And every day, because of her
The joys of Heaven increase.
