To you eldest of all
Who came to know hearing Gods call
Before a single breath I knew
You would know Him, with Him too grew
Trials you faced within your heart
Where troubles came and battles naught
Be not reason to hurt this day
For by His grace, you showed the way
Each single strand of hair once Gold
Now Silver worn your stories told
Of love for her, you her first child
Of love all His in you compiled
A resume that runs clear cross
A life span yours once too lost
Will find true peace in your goodbye
As death came leaving not one eye dry
You forged as mother did through life
Daughter, mother and faithful wife
You took on sin prior to might
Strengthened by Him that knew your strife
Behind you now are memories
Thanks be to GOD such pleasantries
Will keep forever as is the Lord
Your faith one day shall reap your grand reward
Be once again along side Mom
Though not today she is not gone
She is where she's supposed to be
Where good is lived and finally free
Breathe this day and hold to yours
Each moment lived and you'll endure
This loss that pounds across your heart
New life promised by Christ, His to impart
