my pearls - jeff & sheri easter lyrics
she was a widowed bride
at the age of 31
her husband left her
with a daughter and a son
and a lovely string of pearls
she’d wear most every day
and when they asked her why she did
she smiled and said…
these are my pearls
the ones your father gave to me
they are my treasure
like his memory
they will always be a part
of your mama’s heart
precious in this world
my pearls
on thе night her little girl
was going to the prom
and needеd something nice
to match the dress she had on
her mama came into her room
with a twinkle in her eye
saying, “honey, i’d be proud
if you would wear these tonight”
these are my pearls
the ones your father gave to me
they are my treasure
like his memory
they will always be a part
of your mama’s heart
precious in this world
my pearls
but there came a year her paycheck
didn’t stretch quite far enough
with a boy and a girl in college
things got real tough
so, she sold her prized possessions
and though her pearls were gone
she kept the greatest treasure of all
one day her grown up children
stopped by to say h*llo
and asked to see those pearls
mama wore so long ago
she just smiled and pointed
at two pictures on her wall
saying, “there’s my son and daughter
the rarest gift of all”
these are my pearls
the ones your father gave to me
they are my treasure
like his memory
they will always be a part
of your mama’s heart
precious in this world
my pearls
