We often ask, why me dear Lord?
Who am I to receive such a reward?
The child you've given is a blessing from above
Sent down from heaven to be showered with love
I am weak, sometimes scared, to make a mistake
I press on with the task...you chose for me to partake
Who am I to receive such a reward?
To raise a child of my own accord
As my child follows behind with pure innocent affection
I am a mother, who will offer her lifelong love and protection
Who am I to receive such a reward?
I am a mother...trusted with a life to mold
Until their gifts begin to unfold
Then I will take a step back and behold
My child has become the person I helped to shape
Who am I to receive such a reward?
I am a mother who was given a gift so rare...a life to raise, guide and share
I am a mother........
