Where's Mother?

Seventh-day Adventist Publishing Association · Battle Creek, Mich. · Aug 11, 1903

BURSTING in from school or play, This is what the children say; Trooping, crowding, big and small, On the threshold, in the hall— Joining in the constant cry, Ever as the days go by— “Where’s mother?”

Mother with untiring hands, At the post of duty stands; Patient, seeking not her own, Anxious for the good alone Of the children as they cry, Ever as the days go by— “Where’s mother?”
