A Mother's Love

There are times when only a Mother's love
Can understand our tears,
Can soothe our disappointments
And calm all of our fears.


There are times when only a Mother's love
Can share the joy we feel
When something we have dreamed about
Quite suddenly is real.


There are times when only a Mother's faith
Can help us on life's way
And inspire in us the confidence
We need from day to day.


For a Mother's heart and a Mother's faith
And a Mother's steadfast love
Were fashioned by the Angels
And sent from God above.
