A WONDERFUL MOTHER by PAT O'REILLY

First Line: GOD MADE A WONDERFUL MOTHER
Last Line: AND HE GAVE THAT DEAR MOTHER TO ME.

GOD made a wonderful mother,
A mother who never grows old;
He made her smile of the sunshine,
And He molded her heart of pure gold;
In her eyes He placed bright shining stars,
In her cheeks, fair roses you see;
God made a wonderful mother,
And He gave that dear mother to me.
