and so to you I give
someone to show you how I feel,
who'll teach you how to live.
I'll give her many talents
to help you through the years,
she'll be your nurse, your teacher
and always calm your fears.
She will protect you fiercely
and guide you every day
and when you are away from her
how very hard she'll pray.
To see you safe and happy
will be her lifelong quest,
and so she'll seek my guidance
because I know what's best.
She'll share with you a kind of love
that's not like any other.
Her love for you will always be,
I think I'll call her "Mother"
