On the day you were born your parents realized
That their love for each other shone back through your eyes
They were the fortunate ones
They whispered your name as they carried you home
Marjorie
Marjorie
As a bold young woman, you moved out west
To be with your William and make your own nest
You raised a fine daughter who gave you grandsons
And you realized that you were the fortunate one
Marjorie
May the road rise to greet you
May the wind be always at your back
Marjorie
May the sun shine warm upon your face
May the rains fall soft upon your fields
Marjorie
Until we meet again
May God hold you in the hollow of his hand
Though the body is broken, the spirit is strong
And in each life you've touched your love will shine on
Realizing now we're the fortunate ones
We sing out your name as your soul journeys on
Marjorie
May the road rise to greet you
May the wind be always at your back
Marjorie
May the sun shine warm upon your face
May the rains fall soft upon your fields
Marjorie
Until we meet again
May God hold you in the hollow of his hand
Until we meet again
May God hold you in the hollow of his hand
