Until We Meet Again

Mothers Never Really Die

Death beckoned her with outstretched hands

And whispered softly of an unknown land

But she was not afraid to go

For though the path she did not know

She took death’s hand without a fear,

For He who safely brought her here

Had told her He would lead the way

Into eternity’s bright day…

And so she did not go alone

Into the valley that’s unknown

She gently took death by the hand

And journeyed to the Promised Land…

And there, with steps so light and gay,

She polishes the sun by day

And lights the stars that shine at night

And keeps the moonbeams silvery bright…

For mothers really never die,

They just keep house up in the sky…

And in the heavenly home above

They wait to welcome those they love.
