My WIFE
by Charlie Grier at age 95

My wife was as sweet as a wife could be.
The Lord created her just for me.
From the day she consented to be my bride
She stood, ever faithfully, by my side.
A magnificent voice! And the gift to play!
Plus she spent several hours in prayer each day.

She prayed for her friends and she prayed for her foes,
For those who assisted, and those who opposed.
She prayed for me -- till that heart-breaking day--
When the Lord decided to take her away.
Does she pray for me now? I believe she does --
The most faithful companion there ever was!
