Thank God for Praying Mothers

THANK GOD FOR PRAYING MOTHERS
BY-Nita Bourland for Mothers Day 2010

Thank God for praying Mothers
Whose Babe on Bosom lay
Praying to sustain this child
Each and every day.

Thank God for praying Mothers
Whose toddler often falls
Praying God will guide his steps
And he'll listen when God calls.

Thank God for praying Mothers
Whose prayers guide the teen
In choosing right from wrong
And help in ways unseen.

Thank God for praying Mothers
When the child is now full grown
To help in marriage and choices
To guide in ways unknown.

Thank God for praying Mothers
Who become elderly and frail
Often forgetting simple tasks
Crying to God who guides their trail.

Thank God for praying Mothers
To whom you have called on...
Whose child looks up to you in Faith
When she misses the Mother that is gone...
