Free Cee Cursed If Not Taken First Dedicated To My Mom Who Left Me 18 Months Ago
Free Cee Cursed If Not Taken First Dedicated To My Mom Who Left Me 18 Months Ago
CURSED IF NOT TAKEN FIRST
‘Tis this stand I and swear to thee
Before she goes Lord please take me
That these eyes of mine born of blue
Not see the day when I curse you
She may not want now to stay
But first, beg I, take me away
Wherever bound that I may be
Please my Lord, first take me
Spare me the loss of a woman whose inner beauty shone
A lady unlike most or many grown
Forgiveness was her credo known
And pray thee I……..leave me not alone
Please cause not a rift far too wide
That my disdain shall not abide
My soul seeks solace by you, my Lord
But losing her is a price I cannot afford
So raise not an anger within me
That her son’s belief no longer be
So before her death be your decree
Please, my Lord, first take me
