Leslie Aglow

I just heard a report
That our friend Leslie Bort
Has finished her last radiation.

With no hair to show
But her face all aglow
We think she deserves a vacation.

So pack up your things
Climb aboard silver wings
Let Thaddeus sweep you away.

With God on your side
And great family besides
You’re sure to get better each day.

So rest long and grow strong
Christ will bring you along
‘Till you’re healthy and fit as a fiddle

With a husband like yours
And six kids who do chores
You really are one lucky kiddle.

This suffering thing
Carries quite a big sting
It is truly our soul’s refinement

See to carry your cross
Counting all else as loss
Is God’s gift for eternal enhancement.
