HOW LONG DO WE HAVE TO LEAVE OUR MARK
A MOMENT A DAY A YEAR HOW LONG 
DO WE HAVE TO LEAVE SOMETHING BEHIND 
SOMETHING FOR OTHERS TO REMEMBER US BY 

THERE ARE MANY WAYS TO LEAVE YOUR MARK ON THIS WORLD
YOU CAN TREAT PEOPLE JUST A LITTLE KINDER 
YOU CAN HELP A STRANGER 
YOU CAN GIVE OF YOUR TIME AND KNOWLEDGE TO THOSE IN NEED 

YOU CAN BE A FRIEND A MENTOR OR A MOTHER 

A MOTHER 
WHAT A WONDERFUL THING TO BE 
TO HAVE A CHILD LOOK 
AND GAZE UPON INTENTLY 

TO BE A MOTHER
THE SOLUTION TO A NEED 
TO GIVE THE GIFT OF LIFE 
TO BE A SEED 

TO BE A MOTHER 
AND WATCH YOUR CHILDREN GROW
HELPING TO TEACH THEM 
THINGS THEY NEED TO KNOW 

TO BE MOTHER
TO STAY UP LATE 
SOOTHING AN INFANTS CRIES 
AND WIPING TEARS FROM THEIR EYES

TO BE A MOTHER 
TO KNOW THATS ONE THING I LEFT UPON THIS WORLD 
MY MARK MY CHILD MY LEGACY

I AM PROUD AND HONORED TO HAVE A WONDERFUL MOTHER 

AND I AM ALSO GLAD I AM A MOTHER 

TO BE A MOTHER 
AN HONOR AND A BLESSING
