There’s magic in mother’s touch, And sunshine in her smile There’s love in everything she does to make our lives worthwhile We can find both love & courage just by looking in her eyes Her laughter is a source of joy, Her words are warm and wise, There is a kindness & compassion to be found in her embrace And we see the light of Heaven shining from a mother’s face.

“Forever in our Hearts”
