God's Chosen Mother

I know all mothers are special
And chosen from above
To be that special mother.
To share that special love.
   But God knew my Mother was special;
He chose her especially for me. 
He knew just what she needed,
For her future He could see.
   She so wanted a baby,
And she prayed hard every night.
But her prayers seemed to go unanswered;
It didn't seem fair; it just wasn't right.
   But, God knew what He was doing;
He had planned it all from the start.
He knew that I would need a mother
So He placed me in her heart.
   A more perfect match could not have been
Even if our blood we shared. 
For God knew what He was doing
When He gave me a mother who cared.
So Happy Mothers Day to my mom,
My best friend she always will be
For she was chosen by God above
Especially just for me.
