nothing like a mother's loving
when she sings of dreams
unseen by the rest of us
her devotion knows pain
with nothing to gain
yet she smiles like she knows
something we don't
her yielding faith extends
and repays all that lends
yet never counts all the hurt
we put her through
and when we're all at rest
she longs for our best
her prayers trusting and unknowing
nothing like a mother's loving
