Always Alive
With good works' steadfast impact
Dad still lives, though gone* in fact…
as legacy's gracious deed
prevails midst his God-blest creed.
Leaving treasured memories
wrought by prayer-victories...
Mama's constant cheerful zest
reigns while we raise kids with best.
*Hebrews 11:4 By faith Abel offered unto God a more excellent sacrifice than Cain, by which he obtained witness that he was righteous, God testifying of his gifts: and by it he being dead yet speaketh.
