It takes a MotherâАЩs Love
to make a house a home,
A place to be remembered,
no matter where we roam.
It takes a MotherâАЩs Patience,
to bring a child up right,
And her Courage and her Cheerfulness
to make a dark day bright.
It takes a MotherâАЩs Thoughtfulness
to mend the heartâАЩs deep âАЬhurts,âАЭ
And her Skill and her Endurance
to mend little socks and shirts.
It takes a MotherâАЩs Kindness
to forgive us when we err,
To sympathize in trouble
and bow her head in prayer.
It takes a MotherâАЩs Wisdom
to recognize our needs
And to give us reassurance
by her loving words and deeds.
It takes a MotherâАЩs Endless Faith,
her Confidence and Trust
To guide us through the pitfalls
of selfishness and lust.
And that is why in all this world
there could not be another
Who could fulfill GodâАЩs purpose
as completely as a MOTHER!
