Our Heavenly Father could have sent His Son with angels bright; God could have sent Him fully grown To save man from his plight. But He who is all wisdom Chose to place in hands of love The future of the universe, the glory of above. He knew there was no other love On earth which could compare To the unique devotion Of a mother's special care. So deep His trust in this rare love, His faith in it so sure; He gave a mother His own Son, Entrusting Him to her. In doing so, He lifted up This role above all others; And proved that there's a soft spot In His heart of hearts for mothers.
