Sarah's Footprints of Love

Verse 1: Born in Woodbridge by the sea One of eleven children, running free William's daughter, shoemaker's pride Manning's sister, watching dreams take flight Verse 2: Newton's streets led her to love David Auble, sent from above Leather and laces bound their hearts A family business, a brand new start Chorus: Sarah Knapp, she built a home Loved her family through storms and sun From New Jersey to Indiana's shore Left footprints on history's door Love that lasted evermore Verse 3: Six children blessed their Newark days Then Terre Haute became their place Chestnut Street held stories sweet Of little footsteps, memories deep Bridge: Some children roamed to Chicago's lights Some stayed close through dark and light Young Cora left too soon to fly But love lived on, it never died Five grandchildren came to fill her days With joy that time could never fade Chorus: Sarah Knapp, she built a home Loved her family through storms and sun From New Jersey to Indiana's shore Left footprints on history's door Love that lasted evermore Verse 4: In Bushnell's arms she found her rest With daughters near, she was so blessed Eighty-six years of grace and love Now watching over us from above Chorus (modified): Sarah Knapp, she built a home Loved her family through storms and sun From New Jersey to Indiana's shore Left footprints on history's door Her love lives on forevermore Outro: In Bushnell's ground she sleeps today But her story lives on, they say Through generations, strong and true Sarah's love still shines through Still shines through...
