The sun doesn't shine as brightly as it did the day before.
But, the Son of God is smiling,
Because another mother has walked through Heaven's door.
Our loss makes the world seem out of tilt somehow.
It makes the sky seem not quite as blue.
But, Heaven sings of her praises and joys,
Because, another mother, my mother, has entered through.

Those of us that are left behind
We feel cheated that she is now gone.
But we often forget that God does not give us moms,
He loans them, then takes them home.
We can ask God why He takes them away
But often the answer goes untold.
Because moms are made by the hand of God
To carry out their jobs and God's goals.

So, cry for Mom when God calls her home.
It's good to miss her dearly as you should.
But, remember that God doesn't punish by taking her away.
Instead, He empowers us to do as He would.
In all of God's creations, in all of this universe in which we roam,
Nothing hurts more than to lose a mom.
But, it teaches our spirits faith and God blesses us by taking her home.

Weep not for the dead, for they are in the presence of God.
But, weep for the newborn and remember that the mother who cradles that
Child has a most serious job ahead to perform.
