By John Kaniecki

Momma
Lay your bones to rest
Gone is the test
You’ve done your best
You leave more behind
Than memories kind

Momma
We cherish and hold you
More than gold
More than we told you
More then we could express
God bless

Momma
Goodbye
We’ll wail and cry
And never forget
All the good you gave
Up to the grave
In truth you are never gone
Memories, spirits, linger on
And Momma when we fall
And with wearied voice I call
In desperate prayer
Your tender loving care
Will always be there

Momma
Jesus is the Judge of all
Before him we stand or fall
Sleep until His call
We trust and understand
God is in command
And though there is immense grief
We cling to a deep belief
A God of mercy He does reign
And Love is never in vain
