As a Memorial to my mother, Jeraldine Cullen Rhea, I  would like to share the words of her favorite song

***
this was truly the way her life was lived,
for "Others"

1.  Lord, help me live from day to day
     In such a self-forgetful way
     That even when I kneel to pray
     My prayer shall be for -- Others.

2.  Help me in all the work I do
     To ever be sincere and true
     And know that all I'd do for You
     Must needs be done for -- Others.

3.  Let "Self" be crucified and slain
     And buried deep;  and all in vain
     May efforts be to rise again,
     Unless to live for -- Others.

4.  And when my work on earth is done,
     And my new work in heav'n's begun,
     May I forget the crown I've won,
     While thinking still of -- Others.

Chorus:

     Others, Lord, yes, others,
     Let this my motto be,
     Help me to live for others,
     That I may live like Thee.

     Dec. 5, 1912 - Nov. 21, 1993
     Jeraldine Cullen Rhea

~ Thank you Margi for this wonderful rendition ~
It brings back so many wonderful memories...
 I can still hear my mother singing this lovely song
as she sat at her old piano in our living room.
