Mother For Mr

The beauty of that twinkling eye
          That's moistened with a tear
          What did I do to make her cry 
          As she hugged away my fear

          In all my days I'll never know
          More true to love than she
          A mother's heart that's all aglow
          Deserving much, much more, than me

          Imagine, if you could, your son upon a cross
          The pain she felt 
          As down she knelt
          That impending sense of loss

          Only a mother's love could well endure
          Such a travesty
          The promise of a Saviors love
          That fulfilled her destiny

          Not if, but when we meet again
          My life I hope will be
          A testament from now till then
          Of a mother's love from Calvary.
