Together In This Fight

Rating: 4.9

flesh of her flesh
bone of her bone
what one does
so does the other
never alone
mother and daughter
there for each other
neither shall suffer
this thing alone
cancer's a killer
but some shall escape
just fight it together
don't give up hope
prayer can do wonders
and Heaven is real
Grandma is watching
granddaughter can feel
listen to doctors
but don't forget God
He's already been there
this path He's trod
staying together
commune face to face
when this is all over
you shall have Grace
