O mother's love, sweet mothers love,
The gift divine from heaven above,
O mother's love, the sweetest known,
A richest earthly gift we own,
For it our thanks shall clearly wing
To reach the throne of God, our King;
Our praise shall seek the Lord of power
For blessing known this festal hour;
Ah, far above most gifts divine,
The love of mothers brightly shine.
O mother's love, so blessed and true,
That guides and keeps our lifetime through:
Through sacrifice and service dear,
Its depth and sweetness shine more clear:
It is to us a precious gift
That lives to bless and bends to lift;
With lifted hearts we send above
Our gratitude for mother's love.
(Can be sung to the tune of "Sweet Hour of Prayer")
