God gave us a wonderful mother.
One of the world s very best.
And when her work on earth wa» done
He called her home to rest.
Her life was unselfish.
For others she always lived;
No, not for what she could aet.
But what she could always give.
3he had a smile for every one.
And a heart as good as gold;
And those who knew her. loved her.
So her memory will never grow old.
We think of her in silence.
So few have seen us weep,
But many silent tears are shed
When others are asleep.
We only ask to live today,
And when our life work is done.
We will see our darling mother
In God s home beyond the aun.
For all of us she did her best.
Lord, please give her eternal rest.
