A Mothers Sorrow

God Calls To His Child
It's Time...Come Home...

In the wake of death a mother is left
With pain and sorrow
She felt like there would be no tomorrow
For death had left a hole in her heart
And a emptiness that followed
God in His mercy looked down from above
Through the portals of time he seen the
Tears of a mother's love
His compassion and mercy fell like rain
Guiding her through the grief and pain
He sent his strength each day anew
Holding her hand and walking her through
This promise he gave
With unending love 
Your grief and sorrow I will replace
With joy and peace in
All your tomorrows
