My Mother’s Crowns
The New Jerusalem has been
Prepared as the mother of us all
That great city, the Holy Jerusalem
will be filled with sons and daughters
From the nations
My Mother
You never knew my mother, did you?
Ah, you missed a good one there.
A member of an angel band
Came quietly and took her hand,
And led her off somewhere.
