her melody perfect
her soul was so dear
her touch was so sweet
her beauty so near
yes, blessed by her spirit ...
support by her side
moved with her words
admired in her grace
valor in her strength
yes, blessed by her spirit ...
she always adored us
she always supported
she always was giving
she always did care
yes, blessed by her spirit ...
a mind never ceasing
a heart never ending
a love always there
a time always precious
yes, blessed by her spirit ...
within her was warmth
within her was laughter
within her was life
within her was passion
yes, blessed by her spirit ...
some called her their sister
two called her their daughter
one called her his wife
I call her my mother
yes, blessed by her spirit.
