God's Special Creation

The hand that rocks the cradle

Also makes the house a home.

It is the prayers of the mother

That keeps the family strong.

Mother rises early in the morning

And bathes her day in prayer.

She talks to God about her family

And places them in His care.  

Mother communicates her love

In a thousand different ways.

When there's a need, she is there,

Whether it is night or day.

Mother seasons life with love

And gives so much of herself.

God placed in her the best He had

And made her unlike anyone else.

When challenges come our way

And when trials block our view,

Mother kneels down beside her bed

And prays for the family through.

Mother is God's special creation.

She is a light shining in the dark,

Illuminating the path for her family

And pointing them toward God.
