What is a Mom?
Mom is a woman who gives people birth
Her belly is stretched destroying her girth
She sleeps very little because of small cries
You can tell it from the bags under her eyes
Mom puts food in the top side of her children
Then cleans up messes that occur in the bottom
Disposable diapers are a God-send you see
Cuz she’s always behind in doing laundry
She must treat it right or get static shocks
It’s bad enough she always loses socks
She swears next time she’s just gonna throw
That outfit her child is sure to outgrow
Yet another trip to the grocery is sure
To make still more meals no matter how poor
Mom comforts the sick, reads stories to calm
Frightened kids who regret the coming strong storm
She gives the best hugs and laughs at our jokes
She hangs up our picture of the cat wearing clothes
Mom helps us with science, English and math
Then she treats herself to a hot bubble bath
She takes us to practices and cheers as we play
No matter the sport nor even the time of day
If she’s godly she tells you of Jesus God’s Son
And how He died for your sins yes every one
She’ll make sure you come to accept God’s gift
Of grace never-ending and love that won’t quit
She does this to know you’re in heaven with her
Forever and ever and ever for sure
A mom’s love won’t stop when she leaves this life
She’ll wait for you with Jesus at her side
Your life may have started within her small womb
But it won’t end when you’re in a cold tomb
Mom’s heart is too large to stop loving you ever
That’s why she’ll wait for you in heaven.
