She Got Angel Wings Today
*Today I lost my mother
A woman I so loved
She gave to me so much joy
A gift from God above
She said we should not worry
There's a time we all must go
Told us of the plans she made
All the things we'd need to know
I'm glad her fight is over
She had given all she can
She knew that she was ready
To meet her journeys end
My mother was a fighter
So much to us she gave
She lived her life for others
Made the world a better place
Her life it was so special
She was a woman I so loved
Raised five children on her own
Not once did she give up
I told her that I loved her
The night before she died
Kissed her as I held her hand
Felt the love she held inside
I loved my mother very much
And I'm glad she feels no pain
I know she went to heaven
She got Angel wings today*
In memory of my mother
