Praise Mom

For her gift of human birth,

For her gift of loving heart,

For her love which here on earth

Fills our lives with gentle art.

Thanks we give and sweetly praise

Mother on this day of days.

For her days of precious hours,

For her nights of tender care,

For her kind thoughts, like flowers,

That fill home with beauty rare.

Thanks we give and sweetly praise

Mother on this day of days.

For her reverenced gift sublime,

For her genial warmth given,

For her life, a gift divine,

That leads us to eternal heaven.

Thanks we give and sweetly praise

Mother on this day of days.

For our pre and earthly home,

For the joy of all our lives,

For glory not ours alone

That follows as each child thrives.

Thanks we give to Thee above

For the gift of mothers’ love.
