My Christian Mother

God bestowed a blessing upon me; When He chose you as my mother. For me He chose a Christian woman, I am glad there was no other. When I say Christian, that's Christ-like, I will explain what I am saying, Sharing and caring you taught us, Meditating and constantly praying. There was a difference in you mom, You set yourself aside; You placed you hand and life in God's Hand, And allowed Him to be your guide. You did well in raising your kids; As best could be expected. You made sure that in doing so; Praising the Lord was never neglected. You diligently took the time, To teach us right from wrong. You possessed a love that was kind; Understanding, gentle and strong. A Christian Mother, That's what you are. And you will always be; My shining star. And I wish you a long and happy life; A lot less misery and no more strife. And my God bless every life you touch, And remember I love you so very, very much.
