A Mother’s Prayer
An autumn sunset
The ocean sprays
A finch twitters
A Mother Prays
The days are cold
The winter is staying
The river is frozen
A Mother is praying
A Mother’s Prayer
Is like no other
A preacher’s words
Is not a Mother’s
A Mothers prayer
A heart of love
A swelling tide
A gentle dove
A Mothers love
True and strong
So her prayers
Tearful and long
A Mother Prays
The Angels stay
God pauses’
In Heaven’s way
A weary Mother
Prays all day
For her son
Who’s gone astray.
Her prayers rise
To heaven above
For her child
That she loves
So blessings fall
On sons of man
Because of God’s love
And a Mother’s Prayer
