Wonderful Mother – by Patrick O’Relly

God made a wonderful mother,

A mother who never grows old:

He made her smile of the sunshine.

And he moulded her heart of gold;

In her eyes he placed bright shining stars.

In her cheeks fair roses you see;

God made a wonderful Mother,

And he gave that dear mother to me.
