Mother's Day Without My Child Mother's Day without my child Is just another day; A day that once held joy and cheer Is forever gone to stay. I know deep down inside my heart My child is with me still; And once a mother, always a mother That according to God's will. But today my heart is breaking For the child I no longer can see; This day has so little meaning It's just another day for me. Each night I pray and ask my God Why He did this terrible thing to me; His answer always remains the same My child, one day it will be plain to see. Without my child I can't go on Mother's Day means nothing at all; Am I still a mother since my child is gone? God's answer I can now recall. Once I make you a mother I never change my mind; You see, you are now a mother Of a very different kind. The angels I have chosen to come and live with me Need to know their earthly mothers are well; Since some day when their time on earth is through They too will ring Heaven's golden bell.
