Grandma's Quilts

GRANDMA'S QUILTS



Grandma's quilts are homemade treasures

Mine brings joy that I can't measure

'Specially when it keeps me warm at night

When your quilt's been stitched with love & pleasure

Each day's burdens seem so light



(CHORUS)

Grandma's quilts are built to last

Heirlooms of the past

Grandma's quilts are carefully sewn with love

You know it was you she was thinkin' of

As she planned and stitched

Oh, how I wish Grandma's quilts

Would last forever



Amy took her quilt to college

Found that more than books give knowledge

Love of family? that can't be beat

Lyin' 'neath her quilt she made a pledge

She would never know defeat



Sister Kari joined the Navy

Found the quilt that Grandma made

She always shared but still her heart was torn

When her hard-up friend just had a baby

She lent her quilt to keep that baby warm



(CHORUS)



Mikey's quilt was for his birthday

He used to plead for Dad's in the worst way

Bad dreams would fade as Dad's quilt lay on his head

Grandma learned about this and hurriedly

Made a quilt for his own bed



(CHORUS)

Oh, how I wish Grandma's quilts would last forever
