The Sweetest Gift

(written by j.b. coats)
One day a mother went to prison
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
(brought no gold)
No pomp nor style
(longed to see)
It was a halo bright
Sent down from heavens light
The sweetest gift
A mothers smile
She left a smile
You can remember
Shes 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
(brought no gold)
No pomp nor style
(longed to see)
It was a halo bright
Sent down from heavens light
The sweetest gift
A mothers smile
