M-1/

We lost a mother with a heart of gold,
How much we miss her can never be told,
She shared our troubles and helped us along,
If we follow her footsteps we will never go wrong.

We miss you from your fireside chair,
Your loving smile and gentle air,
Your vacant place no one can fill,
We miss you mother and always will.

She was a mother so very rare,
Content in her home and always there,
On earth she toiled, in Heaven she rests,
God bless you mother you were one of the best.

Each time we look at your picture,
You seem to smile and say,
Don’t be sad but courage take,
And love each other for my sake.

M-2/

You can only have one mother,
Patient, kind and true,
No other friend in all the world,
Will be the same to you.

When other friends forsake you,
To mother you will return,
For all her loving kindness,
She asks nothing in return.

As we look upon her picture,
Sweet memories we recall,
Of a face so full of sunshine,
And a smile for one and all.

Sweet Jesus take this message,
To our dear mother up above,
Tell her how we miss her,
And give her all our love.

M-3/

Don’t think of her as gone away,
Her journey’s just begun,
Life holds so many facets,
This earth is only one.

Just think of her as resting,
From the sorrows and the tears,
In a place of warmth and comfort,
Where there are no days and years.

Think how she must be wishing,
That we could know today,
How nothing but our sadness,
Can really pass away.

And think of her as living,
In the hearts of those she touched,
For nothing loved is ever lost,
And she was loved so much.

M-4/

She never failed to do her best,
Her heart was true and tender,
She worked, and toiled for those she loved,
And left them to remember.

We sat beside your bedside,
Our hearts were crushed and sore,
We did our duty to the end,
‘Til we could do no more.

In tears we watched you sinking,
We watched you fade away,
And though our hearts were breaking,
We knew you could not stay.

You left behind some aching hearts,
That loved you most sincere,
We never shall and never will,
Forget you, mother dear.

M-5/

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.

M-6/

If roses grow in Heaven,
Lord please pick a bunch for me,
Place them in my Mother’s arms,
And tell her they’re from me.

Tell her I love her and miss her,
And when she turns to smile,
Place a kiss upon her cheek,
And hold her for a while.

Because remembering her is easy,
I do it every day,
But there’s an ache within my heart,
Because I am missing her today.
