Oh Momma

Oh momma ,why did you leave your baby
In a world all alone,

As you held your baby in your arms as
You closed your eyes to a world of 
Eternal sleep..

Crossing over into the paradise of heaven

Oh momma did hear your baby crying?

In the hour of the dawn,

Oh momma,
The sun polished stars with a light so
Bright,

Surely a comfort, 

So humble you parted from this old
World..

With a tear of sadness you left your
Baby alone,

Oh momma,

I think I felt you near..

While the shadows of the wind pass
Softly touching my cheek..

I thought of you today

In solace I now sustain..

As you sit upon your special star

Oh momma,

I look toward the distant deepest
Sky..

Hoping you will rain your mother
Love down me..

Oh momma,
As I grasp out for you
I know you are an angel watching
Over me...
