TO MOTHER - IN HEAVEN, by                    
First Line: Now there shall be a new song and a new star
Last Line: Because in heaven she is my advocate.
Subject(s): Heaven; Mothers; Paradise


Now there shall be a new song and a new star,
A new voice in the wind to whisper me;
And I shall stand within this harbor bar
And watch a new light tossing down the sea.

My childish terror of the Lord shall cease;
And my dread fear of blind and horrid fate;
And from my sin I shall have sure release
Because in heaven She is my advocate.
