A Special Day for God

Sister Bailey

I feel in my heart God had a very special day

When he called this precious lady away.

I had the privilege of holding her hand

Into my heart a wonderful love would expand.

She was one of God’s elect

On your life she had a special effect.

I remember the day, it’s still fresh in my mind

Mary called and gave me a chance of a lifetime.

To help her and hear the words of a Mother

To brag on her daughter like no other.

Mary had to check her in and leave her alone

But God gave me an honor to meet her before he called her home.

She was like a fragile child laying there
But everyone at the hospital ran to her because they were filled with care.

She couldn’t understand, she said in her voice so small

Why are they so loving every time I call.

I said Mrs. Bailey, they love you because of your heart

People know when they meet you from the start.

You are a precious lady and filled with the Spirit of God

A hard time you’ve had and a rough road you’ve trod.

Where’s my Mary she asked with concern

In her heart for her daughter she did yearn.

Mary had never left her alone for a minute unless she had to

You see "Mary" she loved you!

When Mary heard her voice, in a run she came to see.

Mommy she said, do you need me?

Mrs. Bailey just smiled and said it’s okay

I’ll hold Harriett’s hand today.

I knew it was a blessing from God for me to see
To hold the hand of an angel was His gift to me.
