On This Mother's day

Sharon Brown 1974 (Brooklyn)

Mother's day
is like no other's day
Only one can give birth
Upon this God created Earth

You were made from Adam's rib
It's amazing the love you give
The man was made first
That doesn't diminish your worth

You are a virtuous women
You keep house well
or thrive at whatever you are doing
Whether you buy or sell

You raise your children in the Lord
The Bible is their sword
You teach them how Jesus Christ
Broke sins strong cord
How Gods love was outpoured

On this mother's day
In the glorious month of may
God bless you thoroughly
In Jesus name I Pray
