God’s Gift

by Abby Frierson & Clair Simpson

Thank you for the way you love

In everything you do

Every act of yours is selfless

Every motive good and true

There is no joy that’s like a mother’s

She brings it to her every task

She gives her joy along with service

And gives us what we ask

With patience like the proverb says

She gently chides and then forgives

She deals with all her tact and love

And models how we ought to live

So Mother thank you for your time

So selflessly bestowed

On all your children young and old

And helping bear our load

But most of all we thank you Lord

Who gave us help to go

Along the way to heavens’ gates

And most of all to grow
