FINAL MOVE
A woman walked into our church one night
And told us her name was Lorna;
She stayed for a year
And we gave her our care,
As still she fought her own corner.
-------------------------------------------------
The needy and homeless were her great concern,
And those who came out of prison;
But money was short
And her mission was fraught,
With chaos strife and confusion.
-------------------------------------------------
The wonderful blessings of our Lord Jesus
Were always Lorna's sweet message;
She knew that His love
Could lift people above,
Their shadowy past and its wreckage.
--------------------------------------------------
A faithful good many people worked hard,
To give this dear widow support;
But the truth must be told
She was getting too old,
To endure fatigue of this sort.
--------------------------------------------------
Lorna was lumbered with shifting great loads,
This year her moves numbered seven;
Now things will improve
With this last final move;
TO LIFE ETERNAL IN HEAVEN.
----------------------------------------------------
In memory of Lorna Anne Taylor, 18th November 1928 - 12th May 2004.
