Lying there weeping

She wants to hold

Her crying child

Her baby

Her ray of sunshine

Her youth taken

From a disease

She will never understand

Why her princess

Why her angel

A Mother’s love

Is all she can give

She hates the fear

Of not knowing

If her precious child

Will walk in the morn

Or go a day without pain

She pleads to God

"Oh let me take this from her

I’ve lived my life

She is still so young"

A Mother’s love

Is all she can give

To me my Mother’s love

Is the most precious gift

A blessing from above

Causing me to forget the pain.
