Ruth
I walked with God, child,
and came from afar.
I travelled alone with
my mother-in-law.
Our husbands had died
and we were so poor,
I gleaned up the wheat from
the fields and the floor.
God put me into
His own Son’s great line.
Yes, He was so faithful
to me all the time.
Oh,
Please walk with God, child–
let faithfulness be
spoken about you
as your legacy.
Oh,
Cling to your dear ones
and serve them in love.
You’ll be a reflection
of our God above.
