The Mothers

What Of the Sons that go to War
And the Mothers they leave behind
To wait and pray from day to day?
For a Mothers loves divine
Like Mary NJ old on calvary Hill
with hearts that are bleeding and torn,
They are giving mp the best In their lives
when they give up the sons they've
horne
The boys they have watched with love and
pride
As from year TO year they grew
As they grew TO manhood at ev'ry stride,
So brave and good and true.
The Mother would gladly give her life
To keep her hoy from harm,
To take his place in the awful strife
when the trumpets sound alarm
But he has been taught to love the flag
His fathers before him bore;
And now's the time when he cannot lag
At his country's call TO war.
That's what the Mothers are doing today,
They give the hest in their lives:
They give up their Sons so strong and
brave
To fight for the Stars and Stripes.
Anna Cornelia Farrell.
