Only a mother knows the pain
Sometimes losing in rain
Protection in the day and night
Teaching what is wrong and right
We know a mother's love can heal
Wounds and scars we try to conceal
Even while down guides us through
Somehow stands though unable to
Only a mother can understand
With her heart and tender hand
Through the highs
Through the lows
Her instinct it always knows
Only a mother's type of strong
Enduring when things go wrong
Sacrifice with a smile so sweet
Will go alone to face defeat
In her eyes
God forms our way
Instilled greatness that will stay
Only a mother
Only she
Pours love that flows endlessly
Words whispered in our ear
Saying there's no need to fear
Honor mom, erase tears
Hold this truth through the years
We know a mother's love can heal
Wounds and scars we try to conceal
Even while down guides us through
Somehow stands though unable to
Only a mother can understand
With her heart and tender hand
Through the highs
Through the lows
Her instinct it always knows
Only a mother
God forms our way
Instilled greatness that will stay
Only a mother
Only she
Pours love that flows endlessly
Words whispered in our ear
Saying there's no need to fear
Honor mom, erase tears
Hold this truth through the years
