The First Time
The first time I looked into your eyes
You filled my life with many smiles
You touched my heart and soul
You gave my life so much joy
That only a mother would know.
The first time I looked into your eyes
You surrounded me with love and security
You touched my heart and soul
You made my life complete
That only a wife could see.
The first time I looked into your eyes
You taught me all life’s lessons
You said it was your time to go
You filled my heart with tears
That only a daughter would fear.
The first time I look into your eyes
You will surround me with your light
You will tell me that you love me
You will fill my heart with joy
That only a child of God will know.
