God's Greatest Gift

From the moment of my birth 
I felt the presence of a special love 
Unconditional and everlasting 
A gift from up above 
This love would gently guide me 
Through all the days of my life 
It would share my times of happiness 
And take the brunt of all my strife 
It lead me on a path of righteousness 
Yet many times let me walk alone 
ItÍs guidance and support remains 
Even now that I am grown 
I often sit in amazement 
At how this love remained so strong 
Through my trials and tribulations 
And all that IÍd done wrong 
This love has never failed me 
Though many times put to test 
Never judging the choices I made 
Or lack of praise for doing my best 
And to this day, itÍs never shone brighter 
Though the miles between us are many 
If asked of a love that is greater 
From the heart, IÍd say ñthere isnÍt anyî 
Now many years have passed 
I have children of my own 
I pray to the heavens every night 
That they will feel the love IÍve known 
I Íll go through life, knowing I am blessed 
And thank our god above 
For giving me a wondrous life 
And the gift of a MotherÍs love
