SOMETIMES THE TRIALS OF LIFE
CAN HIT US VERY HARD,
BUT WE CAN MAKE IT THROUGH
IF WE PUT OUR TRUST LORD;
I REMEMBER THAT NOVEMBER
BACK IN NINETEEN HUNDRED EIGHTY SEVEN,
WHEN GOD TOOK MY MOMMY
TO LIVE WITH HIM IN HEAVEN;
I FELT AS THOUGH MY HEART STOOD STILL,
WHEN THEY CAME FOR MY MOMMY, THAT DAY,
I STOOD THERE AS IF I WAS IN A TRANCE
AS THE HEARSE DROVE SLOWLY AWAY;
I DIDN'T REALIZE, UNTIL THEY DROVE OUT OF SIGHT,
THAT I WOULD NEVER SEE MY MOMMY AGAIN,
I FELT AS IF I HAD DIED INSIDE
AS THE TEARS LAPPED UNDER MY CHIN;
I HAD SO MUCH ANGER AND PAIN
BUILDING UP INSIDE ME,
BECAUSE I COULDN'T UNDERSTAND
WHY THIS HAD TO BE;
I SPOKE IN MY HEART, I SAID,
"LORD, IF YOU REALLY LOVE ME,
'THEN HOW COULD YOU TAKE
MY MOMMY FROM ME??"
BUT WHAT I DIDN'T REALIZE
AND WHAT I COULDN'T YET UNDERSTAND,
WAS ALL THE TIME MY MOMMY SUFFERED,
HER SOUL WAS SAFELY IN GOD'S HAND;
IT HAS BEEN TWENTY SEVEN YEARS NOW
SINCE GOD TOOK MOMMY AWAY,
BUT IT STILL HURT JUST AS MUCH,
AS IT DID THAT NOVEMBER DAY;
I KNOW IT WAS GOD'S WILL
THAT MY MOMMY HAD TO GO,
BUT MY HEART IS STILL IN SO MUCH PAIN,
BECAUSE LORD , I LOVE THAT LADY SO!
THE PAIN WILL ALWAYS BE IN MY HEART
BUT THE LORD MAKES IT EASIER TO BEAR
MY MOMMY'S NOW RESTING WITH JESUS
AND I HOPE SOMEDAY TO BE WITH HER THERE!

...I WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU MOMMY...
"OUR LOVE SHALL NEVER DIE"
