Bridge of tears

The young mother ran away
Couldn’t face the pain
Her tears fell upon her beautiful face
She had had enough
No more of his torment would she face
His unfair torture was too much!
She would end her pain-filled life!
She thought she could leave behind
All that had been her life but
Her four precious children’s faces
Flashed before her eyes; kept her there
Unable to jump and die

The dear Lord was there with her that night
Showing her; there was so much more to give
The angels held her back; kept her safe
Until a man would come to take her to safety
They knew that she could not leave
Her children loved her so!
They needed their mother
To love and protect them
She was all that stood between
Them and their old grandmother!
She was all that was good
She was all that was beautiful
Grand mama was cold and hard
She loved no-one; had lost her love
The orphanage had stolen her soul
Those poor children would suffer
If she were to hold the reins
