Happy Mother's Day!

Mother's Day is remembrance day

And we pause on the path of the year

To pay honor and worshipful tribute

To the mother our heart holds dear . . .

For, whether here, or in heaven,

Here love is our haven and guide,

For always the memory of mother

Is a beacon light shining inside . . .

Time cannot destroy her memory

And years can never erase

The tenderness and the beauty

Of the love in a mother's face . . .

And, when we think of our mother,

We draw nearer to God above,

For only God in His greatness

Could fashion a Mother's love.
