A Mother's Love

A Mother’s Love

Oh, come all ye mothers,

And listen to this,

For your love is contagious,

Emitting a heavenly bliss.

A Mother’s love begins,

Before the day she gives birth,

A bond is formed into,

The greatest love on earth.

Mother’s teach us about Godly ways,

Her patience is never ending and her love a constant flow,

She comforts us through our challenges,

While giving us the freedom to grow.

When I look upon her glorious face,

I see love and beauty,

A picture of grace,

When the pressures of life,

Are weighing me down,

I am lifted by a praying mom,

I’m made to feel safe and sound.

Here me, oh precious mothers,

When I’ve felt lost and didn’t know where to turn,

I would remember you dear mother,

And the love I didn’t have to earn.

I knew as long as I gave you honor,

As the good book says,

That my life would be long,

Beyond my days.

Thank you dear mothers for being,

The obedient and brave soldier you’ve been,

Guiding and helping others,

Always being a trusted friend.

Your eyes have witnessed,

What your heart has embraced,

With your gentle hands pressed firmly,

You have prayed for me with grace.

Dear mother, wife, grandmother and friend,

Your love has existed, since the world began,

Because of your faith,

And your love for the Lord,

Your children have learned to always trust God.

The lessons you’ve taught,

 And the lessons I’ve learned; to this very day,

Will forever be embraced,

In my heart, “come what may”.
