"A Mother's Love"

Mary was pledged to be married
Oh the joy that filled her heart:
Then before they came together,
Mary was found to be with child.

Joseph being the righteous man
Many thoughts flooded his mind,
In a dream an angel came to him,
Joseph fear not it's the holy Spirit's time.

Mary has been chosen to bear a son
His name was to be called, Emmanuel:
He was to be the Savior of the world,
Mary's baby boy he was the chosen one.

Mary's heart was filled with joy
As she gazed upon her baby boy,
This special child was sent from above,
He was born to Mary, A Mother's Love.

Mary wrapped Him in swaddling clothes
And in the manger He did lay,
Mary loved Him, Oh so dearly,
The King is risen, He lives today.

Oh Mary held her baby so tight
As the love of any Mother,
He was the Alpha and Omega
The chosen baby like no other.
