Our Father God in heaven

Our deepest joys and sorrows a mother's path must trace, and earth's unknown tomorrows are held in her embrace. 3 How well we know the story that tells of Jesus' birth, the Lord of heaven's glory become a child of earth; a helpless infant sleeping, yet King of realms above, to find in Mary's keeping the warmth of human love. 4 Our Father God in heaven, to you we lift our prayer, that every child be given such tenderness and care, where life is all for others, where love your love displays: for God's good gift of mothers let earth unite in praise!
