Before your life began on earth
You stood with God and knew his plan.
Blessed you were with a mother pure
Your Father, he was a righteous man.
The veil had taken from your mind
Your twelve children waiting in line.
One by one they all would come.
You taught them well so they’d be fine.
You filled our home with love and bread
That was how we knew you cared
We always knew you were there
Your heart with us was always shared.
Each child came with a different view
Especially crazy number eight.
He made you laugh and made you cry
But you would always set him straight.
What a blessed life you have
A family tree that has no end.
Generations will revere
Because your faith did never bend.
This life was meant to be a test
A test of Faith and Charity.
You’ve done all that He asked of you
Without complaint that we could see.
The day will come when you will kneel
At your Savior’s holy feet;
Your mission finished faithfully,
Your test is done; it is complete.
