The Sweetest Gift

To see an eering but precious son

She told the warden

How much she loved him

It did not matter what he had done

She did not bring to him

A parole or pardon free

She brought no silver

No pomp nor style

It was a halo bright

Sent down from heaven's light

The sweetest gift

A mother's smile

She left a smile

You can remember

She's gone to heaven

From heartaches free

Those walls around you

Could never change her

You were her baby

And ere will be

She did not bring to him

A parole or pardon free

She brought no silver

No pomp nor style

It was a halo bright

Sent down from heaven's light

The sweetest gift

A mother's smile

It was a halo bright

Sent down from heaven's light

The sweetest gift

A mother's smile

The sweetest gift

A mother's smile
