For Hope
Oh death you had come
to carry my mother home
but you came too soon
There was a request
She wanted to be baptized
Is it now too late?
With her hand in mine
you came gently as a friend
and took pain away
Tears welled in my eyes
and fell upon her sweet cheek
as pure liquid love
Her life now complete
when baptized with holy tears
went to be with God
One thought on "For Hope"
