CORA'S POEMS

About two weeks before Cora died, she wanted a new tablet to write in. About two weeks after she died, Vicki (Cora's mom) looked in the tablet and found two poems that Cora had written. Thank you very much to the Jones family for sharing these-- they are beautiful!



"GOD"
by Cora Jones

God is a good word
He is like a spring bird
Don't be afraid to pray
God will forgive you always
He will guide you through life
No matter what road you take
God will always live within you


"CRYING"
by Cora Jones

It's all write to cry
Just let out a little sigh
Don't be afraid
You've got it made
Cry for love
Cry for hate
I'm just letting you know
Sometimes it's alright to cry



Cora helped to write this prayer and read it in front of church at camp in July of 1994. At her funeral, everyone read the prayer together.

Dear Lord,
Thank you for the wonderful week you have given to us. We have learned all that your Son has done for us and how truly amazing He is. The things we have learned will keep us believing. Lord, please stay in our hearts and souls for the rest of our lives. Please watch over us as we grow in your love and faith. Thank you for giving us your Son to die for us.
In Jesus name we believe and pray. Amen.
