First Line: E'en though the earth should pass away
Last Line: The afterglow of mother love!
Subject(s): Love; Mothers
E'en though the earth should pass away
And all that God had e'er ordained --
The realms of space all starless be,
And Chaos rule where Order'd reigned --
No deep, dark night would hover o'er,
For still there'd be, below, above,
A tender haze of mauve and rose,
The afterglow of mother love!
