Mother, Oh Mother


Mother, oh mother,
How thankful I am
For you bearing me from your womb,
And raising me up
To be the man I am today.
And for this I am eternally
In your debt.

Mother, oh mother,
Forgive me for all
The pain I caused you in the past.
For I forgot without you
I would not be.
And believe me now
I shall never again forget.

Mother, oh mother,
You are truly blessed.
For your strength is my strength,
And your love 
I will see to it 
That you never regret.

Mother, oh mother,
Let The Creator be
Forever with you.
For unlike the sun,
The love of God
Shall never set.
