You are the one who brought me here
Into this wondrous world and wide
The hope and pain you did endure
By smiles and tears did love betide
And from your gentle arms I flew
Forever guided by your song
As in your heart I know and knew
That you would love me right or wrong
There stands no greater love than this
A mother’s dreams held for her child
Earth’s manifest of Heaven’s bliss
Telluric blessings mercy mild
As long as men have tears to shed
As long as hearts have hope to spring
As long as blood stays crimson red
I’ll think of you though tears may sting
So if you look from Heaven down
And see the man you raised to be
Know that the seeds of love so sown
Shall ever bide in memory…
