WHEN GOD CREATED MOTHERS…

God knew what He was doing
When He created Mothers.
The qualities He gave them
Are possessed by not one other.

They have a way of speaking soft
That calms your greatest fears.
A voice embedded in your soul
That carries you for years.

She has a way of letting you know
That her love is always near;
The tenderness of her gentle hand
As she dries your every tear.

A Mother always stands by you
Even when you’re wrong.
Then she tries to guide you right
When she has you all alone.

When in the company of others
Never making you feel small
With pride and joy she’ll stand by you
And help you to stand tall.

She has a way of holding you up
When things in life go wrong.
She’ll carry you till she can tell
That once again you’re strong.

When she thinks you need the space
To venture out and grow,
She lets you feel you’re on your own
But never did let go.

The part of us we leave behind
A Mother keeps alive.
No matter how much time goes by
You’ll always be her child.

God knew what He was doing
When He created Mothers.
They have a way of loving you
That compares to not one other.
