Sunday Kipling

It's technically still Sunday. Sorry, got caught up in the Mother's Day festivities.

Mother o' Mine

DEDICATION TO "THE LIGHT THAT FAILED"
 
If I were hanged on the highest hill,
Mother o' mine, O mother o' mine!
I know whose love would follow me still,
Mother o' mine, O mother o' mine!

If I were drowned in the deepest sea,
Mother o' mine, O mother o' mine!
I know whose tears would come down to me,
Mother o' mine, O mother o' mine!

If I were damned of body and soul,
I know whose prayers would make me whole,
Mother o' mine, O mother o' mine!
