The Sweetest Gift

One day a mother went to a prison

To see an erring but precious son

She told the warden how much she loved him

It did not matter what he had doneShe 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 Heaven's light

The sweetest gift

A mother's smileShe left a smile

You can remember

She's gone to Heaven

From heartaches freeThose walls around you

Could never change her

You were her baby

And 'ere will beShe 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 Heaven's light

The sweetest gift

A mother's smileIt was a halo bright

Sent down from Heaven's light

The sweetest gift

A mother's smileThe sweetest gift

A mother's smile
