A Silver Spoon

A Silver Spoon In my mouth was not born with a silver spoon So God when you take me to heaven soon To many facts I must become resigned Hardly anything have I ever left behind. One is wife who I love through and through Who was always faithful to and then true Children who to us from God had been born And each came to us on an early morn. Numerous friends behind will also leave Yet still knowing in God I should believe Knowing in my life what was meant for me From all earthly things will set us all free. On earth are material things all around While God's love is there and does surround Us all as we shall start to see His open door Which will be way to heaven forevermore .
