Light Did Shine From Her Smile, Such Grace

Light Did Shine From Her Smile, Such Grace She graced all with her gentle ways she so loved to help the poor strays; There resides softness in her voice thinking well of all by first choice, Light did shine from her smile, such grace her good deeds, nothing can erase. Was through winter snow that she came brought comfort with her just her name; Now this abyss shows she is gone her admirers feel so alone, Light did shine from her smile, such grace her good deeds, nothing can erase. Set all with wonderment and awe her absence seems our greatest fall; For now dawn comes in cold and dim sorrows as in lost lover's film, Light did shine from her smile, such grace her good deeds, nothing can erase. Spring's blessings saw her fly away its joys turned to deepest of grays; From whence she came nobody knew her leaving sent waves of deep blue, Light did shine from her smile, such grace her good deeds, nothing can erase. O' yes we kneel, pray her return rekindling love's fires that burn; Tho' Time answers not our sad plea nor explains the why she did flee, Light did shine from her smile, such grace her good deeds, nothing can erase. We beg our angel come again we are lost in a swirling spin; We wonder why we were blessed none of our sins had we confessed, Light did shine from her smile, such grace her good deeds, nothing can erase. Now many decades have thus flown our love for her has only grown; Some few say they have seen her light as it brightened their darkest night, Light did shine from her smile, such grace her good deeds, nothing can erase. She graced all with her gentle ways she so loved to help the poor strays; There resides softness in her voice thinking well of all by first choice, Light did shine from her smile, such grace her good deeds, nothing can erase.
