A Mothers Love

A MOTHERS LOVE IS EVERLASTING,
SO STROUNG AND SO DEVINE,
A TRUER LOVE THERE NEVER WAS,
AS THAT; THAT COMES FROM MINE.

THIS LOVE CAN CURE A HEARTBREAK,
AND ALSO BRING A SMILE,
WILL HELP A CHILD IN TIMES OF WOE,
PLUS GO THAT EXTRA MILE.

IT HOLDS THIS WORLD TOGETHER,
A BOND THAT CAN'T BE BROKEN,
SHE DOSN'T ASK FOR ANY REWARD,
NONE; NOT ANY TOKEN.

SO WHEN I THINK OF MOTHER,
I THANK THE LORD ABOVE,
THAT YOU WILL BE THERE FOR ME,
TO GIVE A MOTHERS LOVE.
