Mother Can you picture little mother In her rocking chair, With her hair so white and dainty. Free from toil and care? She will sing old songs, Hymns to her most dear, The shepherd's psalm recite, Bring Heaven very near. She's ninety-two years old, Her journey's end in view, Her feet are on. the highway, She'll soon be passing through. The pearly gates of beauty, Her longing eyes will see, One day nearer home, Where she so longs to be. Written by Louise M. Colegrove.
