A good wife who can find? She is far more precious than jewels Meet Mercy Malloy. Whether she s cooking up the best grub to be had all along the Holladay stagecoach line, working her husband s horse farm or helping her neighbors, God s love fills her life.She opens her hand to the poor, And reaches out her hands to the needy So when two orphaned children appear on her doorstep, she hesitates only a moment before opening her heart and her home to them. Perhaps this is the Lord s way of sending her and Judd the babies they ve prayed for.Her children rise up and call her blessed;Her husband also, and he praises her Out on the Kansas plains the years bring hardship and heartache Indian attacks, a runaway daughter, an abandoned baby in a basket but also precious new life and the unlooked for joy of a surprise love. Through it all, Mercy s faith holds her family together, creating a patchwork of strength and beauty."
