I did not sit atop a wall
But from grace I did fall
Your kinsmen with their horsepow'r came
They rallied round, my life sustained
And while they ate up earth to thee
You gathered all you had for me
Then when they brought me to your table
9 hours you did all that you were able
My life and limb seemed so oft' to fail
That efforts would be to no avail
But never did you give up hope
And life seemed spared but by a mote
Minutes, hours, days went by
And for you both more work came nigh
You gave up days of your own lives
Because you did a little girl survived
Thank-you
