She taught me to stand
tall,
to be strong when I feel
small.
She taught me that perfect
love casteth out all fear,
by loving me and holding
me dear.
She taught me to love the
Lord,
and to fight trials with a
spiritual sword.
She taught me that it's ok
to cry,
and she will always be
there to dry my eye.
She taught me to count my
many blessings
when I'm feeling all is
lost,
and to enjoy my life even
when it's covered in frost.
She taught me to laugh,
and have fun too,
and to cherish the things
I can still do.
She taught me to get down
on my knees
when I feel I can no
longer bear this disease.
She taught me to have
faith and trust
in the Lord because He
will only do what He must.
She has always been my
greatest example;
everyone she's touched
have gotten a sample.
She is my mom, and I will
miss her so,
but my family is forever,
this I know.
