There's a Reason

For every burden that we bear,
For every sorrow, every care,
There’s a reason
For every grief that bows the head,
For every tear-drop that is shed,
There’s a reason
For every hurt, for every plight,
For every lonely pain racked night,
There’s a reason
But if we trust God as we should,
All must work out for our good,
He knows the reason.

Legacy of Love

A wife, a mother, a grandma too,
This is the legacy we have from you.
You taught us love and how to fight,
You gave us strength, you gave us might.
A stronger person would be hard to find,
And in your heart, you were always kind.
You fought for us all in one way or another,
Not just as a wife not just as a mother.
For all of us you gave your best,
Now the time has come for you to rest.
So go in peace, you've earned your sleep,
Your love in our hearts, we'll eternally keep.
