Night of Nights

This night of nights we all prayed for

The savior of mankind was born

Born into a world of sin

He’d save us from a world forlorn. 

Mary his mother swaddled him 

Into a manger he was placed. 

Shepherds came from far away

To look upon His holy face. 

Gifts were brought by kings afar

He was the promised King of Kings. 

He came into the world a babe

With love and healing in his wings.

Now he sits on God’s right hand 

To plead for us each passing day. 

He only wants to bless us all

For each of us I know he prays. 

Love each other as he loves

That is what will change the heart. 

He came and offered everything 

Now we must do our humble part.

The day you left from your heavenly home

The angels gave you your last embrace.

You passed through heaven’s gateway to the earth

And into the arms of your mother’s grace.

Life was not meant to be a piece of cake

More like a long climb up a mountain top.

You handled with grace the trials that came

They forged a strong spirit that would not stop.

Three daughters would come and brighten your life

Each of them brought their own special charm.

No matter the trials they went through in life.

They would hold tight to your very strong arm.

They brought to your life grandchildren galore

And those bundles of joy brought heaven’s love.

You never imagined love felt this way

As this pure love came from heaven above.

Your Charlie was sent to lighten your load

He made you feel love and he made you laugh.

You gave him your heart which forever he’ll keep.

Both of you were each other’s best half.

As you finish this journey called life

The love you have shared will stay with us all.

Soon you will be with your Savior divine

And watch over loved ones whenever they call.

The tears that we shed as you go to the light

Are only the love that we have just for you.

We look to the day when we all will return

To your sweet embrace and your love so true!

-Love you forever, Marion
