When my world falls down around me,
And the ground is sinking sand;
When peace can't be found on this earth,
I reach out for her hand.
Then when her hand wraps 'round my own,
A strength pours from her soul;
It brings me to a quiet calm,
Till once again I'm whole.
A peace beyond all reason,
A rest there in her touch;
Something in her quiet words,
My heart yearns for so much.
If I but rest my worries,
Upon her shoulder there;
The strength that pours forth from her soul,
Will wash away each care.
Like a cool, sweet taste of water,
For a tired and thirsty man;
My heart finds peace, my soul is calm,
When I reach out for her hand.
Thank you Dear Lord, for my mother
Amen
