Ain't Life Grand by Kathleen Higham Ain't life grand, she'd say? My Auntie spoke this way Her eyes sparkled mysteriously She enjoyed every single day. Her life was not an easy one As hardships quickly came If this had been my life I would never be the same. But she never challenged God Instead just loved Him more No matter what the burden That was presented at her door. "Ain't life grand," she'd say? I don't know about that So many years, tears that fell While in her chair she sat. Heartache that immobilized Yet she complained, nil Every trial that God allowed Well, she thanked Him still. Agonizing pain would touch her Before the morn would start Age had crippled her, it's true But a fire burned in her heart. "Ain't life grand," she'd say? I can see her face right now She loved life, loved the Lord Got through it all somehow. "Ain't life grand," she'd say? From the heavens I can hear "Ain't life grand," oh yeah! Meet you there Auntie dear. |
