MOTHER TERESA


Mother Teresa-The Missionary of charity
In Calcutta,India she would dwell
Serving with love,devotion and humility
The battered and broken God's love to tell.

Receiving the call within a call
To serve the poorest of the poor
Through Jesus Christ Her all in all
Her Saviour she would only live for.

Robed in safari white and blue
Brought joy to many by her radiant smile
Graciously like the morning dew
She gave them succour in their weary miles.

She brought hope to the lepers, the dying
Comforting them and dispensing good medicine
Clothing the naked; the hungry feeding
Helping the destitutes by providence divine.

A tender heart of caring and sharing
Possessed this Catholic Nun loved by many
Who went in 1997 to be with the Lord rejoicing
Leaving for the world a wonderful legacy.
