Sister Margaret's been here many years In service to the children and the Lord. She is one lovely note within a chord Too vast and beautiful for human ears. Even those who've carved out bright careers Remember long and fondly one who poured More love into their hearts than they could hoard, A river sweeping through their childhood tears; Remember, too, the beauty of a life Given as an act of charity, All of it, not one desire held back. Ruled by need, they pause in harmony, Even in the midst of daily strife, To see in her a passion that they lack. Copyright by Nicholas Gordon
