Poetry

---

She opens her hands,
To oppressed people;
And meets the demands,
Within the Gospel.

She stretches them out,
To people in need;
And without a doubt,
Help them to succeed.

She would never fear,
For all of her kin;
If Satan comes near,
Try to lure to sin.

Clothing she has made,
As well as a quilt;
Without getting paid,
For what she has built.

Her husband is known,
At the city gate;
Farms the land they own,
For food on the plate.

She makes things to sell,
Takes them to the store;
For cash where they dwell,
Then she can make more.

She sees the future,
Smiles as she speaks;
And hears the preacher,
A Savior she seeks.

For she is so kind,
As love fills her heart;
Wisdom on her mind,
Scripture to impart.

For she has been blest,
Children and husband;
Having done her best,
Her life enlightened.

Some women have done,
Many noble deeds;
But favor she won,
Is why she succeeds.
