Motherhood, sublime, eternal

Author: J. S. Cutler Hymnal: TTT-Himnaro Cigneta #532 Lyrics: 1 Motherhood, sublime, eternal, lives in God’s great heart of Love; Ever holds us, safe enfolds us, underneath, around, above; Patient, tender, kind, forgiving, though in devious paths we roam; Gently chides us, ever guides us, and all-loving, leads us home. 2 Ev’ry wrong will sure be righted; ev’ry evil swept away; Truth upspringing, justice bringing, ushers in the brighter day; Mother calls her earthly children, loves them, lifts them when they fall; Striving, calling, fainting, falling, Motherlove enfolds them all. 3 God is love, and love forever in the motherheart is blest; Lives the longest, lifts the strongest, far outreaching all the rest; Not by might, and not by wisdom comes our lifting from the sod: Love’s pure glory tells the story in the Motherheart of God.
