My Rosary Beads Verse 10
A little pair of Rosary Beads –
As plain as plain can be.
But only God in heaven knew,
How dear they were to me.
I had them always with me
At every step I took.
At evening when I slumbered,
At morn when I awoke.
In bright and cloudy weather,
In sunshine and in rain.
Happiness or sorrow –
In pleasure or in pain.
It helped me in my struggle,
It reproved me when I sinned.
It’s look of gentle patience,
Rebuked the strife within.
In days of pain and anguish,
The greatest help I knew,
Was to hold my Rosary Beads
Until I calmer grew.
So when the time approached
when I had to die,
My little Rosary Beads
close beside me lie.
That the holy name of Jesus
May be the last I say,
And kissing my sweet Rosary Beads
My soul passed away.
