GOING HOME TO MOTHER
The following piece of verse was
written by Mrs. Ossie McCord Mc-
Larty of Dougasville, and lovingly
dedicated to the memory of her
mother, the late Mrs. J. R- McCord
of Jackson, and to the other mothers
from Jackson who have passed on:
Yes, we all go home to mother
When the day is near its close,
For ’tis there we get our comfort
And a 'balm for all our woes.
How we need her to be with us
To her counsel we woula fly,
For we feel the need of mother
Every day that passes by.
There’s none else can so determine
What for all our needs is best.
None so truly sympathizes
When we’re facing some great test.
Ir our days of early childhood
%e felt no need of other
But brought our troubles and our
joys
And emptied them on mother.
f
She it was who kissed our bruises.
Binding up each cut and sprain;
Gladly she’d have borne our suffer
ing,
Freeing us from adhes and pains.
Her smiles would chase away our
tears,
With her the sun was shining;
It mattered not if clouds were black,
She saw their silver lining.
And always so very gentle,
With her hand upon our 'brow,
She would speak those words of wis
dom
Freeing us from aches and pains.
Like benedictions now.
Oh, how she loved us every one,
We can never quite forget.
Such love as hers can know no ehd
But e’er lingers with us yet.
The years have come and years have
gone,
And mother now is sleeping,
Her place is vacant in our home,
Sad vigil we are keeping.
This bit of comfort do we find,
kWe’ll change it for no other—
We pledge ourselves to live like her,
Anl then go Home to Mother.
