Mama was the name I gave
To my husband's sweet Mother
She was a precious lady
Who was like no other

She birthed a little boy
Who grew to manhood, tall
She shared him with another
Who would love him with her all

Mama taught me many things
Of which I am grateful for
That homemaking was wonderful
Not to be thought of as a chore

I tried so hard to please her
For she gave her only Son
To be joined in holy wedlock
And walk with Jesus as One
