Kneeling at the alter her head again bowed She thanked our dear Lord and then made her vow She thanked Him for carrying her in bad times She thanked Him for forgiving her of life’s crimes Kneeling at the alter in total relief She rejoiced at the thought of no more grief She rejoiced in knowing that she found the way She rejoiced and again she began to pray. edited by Juanita Warden on 7/1/2011 edited by Juanita Warden on 7/1/2011
