A Mother's Special Love

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, God lifted up
This role above all others,
And proved that there's a soft spot
In His heart of hearts for mothers!
