Mother's Day
WHEN YOU FIRST HOLD YOUR CHILD AND GAZE IN IT'S FACE
A MIRACULOUS THING SEEMS TO TAKE PLACE
SOMETHING INSIDE YOU, A NEW KIND OF LOVE
AND YOU KNOW FOR SURE IT CAME FROM ABOVE
THIS NEW KIND OF BOND YOU FEEL FOR THIS BABY
TO LOVE AND PROTECT NURTURE AND HOPE THAT MAYBE
THE SEEDS YOU PLANT WILL SPREAD AND GROW
AND A LOVE FOR JESUS WILL START TO SHOW
YOUR LIFE HAS CHANGED BUT IT'S FOR THE BEST
MANY NIGHTS YOU WILL GET NO REST
BUT IT'S ALL WORTH WHILE MOST OF THE TIME
YOU CAN PROUDLY SAY THIS CHILD IS MINE
THE YEARS SO QUICKLY PASS AWAY
YOU NOTICE THAT YOUR HAIR IS TURNING GRAY
THE BOND BETWEEN YOU TWO IS JUST AS STRONG
AND THAT IS HOW IT WILL ALWAYS BELONG
GOD BLESS MOTHER'S EVERYWHERE
FOR YOUR LOVE, DEVOTION AND CONSTANT CARE
AND NOW LET US THANK THE LORD ABOVE
FOR GIVING ALL MOTHER'S THIS VERY SPECIAL LOVE
