Every angels had gathered
Not a single angel took flight
They watched with amazement
As the Lord worked late into the night
He gathered all that was good
Then He added a pinch out of each
He used only the best
It was all with in His reach
He used clay from the Earth
To bind it all tightly together
And yet somehow it remained
As delicate as a feather
He gave it the patients of the ages
And an inner strength beyond measure
He hadn't yet given it form
But the Angels knew it was a treasure
He soaked it in compassion
Then sprinkled it with loyalty and drive
It was beginning to take shape
Though it was not yet alive
All of heaven was now watching
And not a word was even spoke
As the Lord begin to mold it
With each caressing stroke
He gave it great beauty
But it seemed so very cold
So the Lord placed more love in its heart
Than it could possibly ever hold
Filling its lungs with His own breath of life
The Lord held it up for all to see
Behold the immortality of man
For she is also an image of me
Like man she is also my child
But she is like no other
Her name will now forever be honored
For she alone is the one called Mother!!
