The Greatest Call

I’ll tie their shoes and wipe their nose

Clean their ears and trim their toes

I’ll dry their eyes when filled with tears

And chase away their every fear.

 

I’ll pick them up when they fall down

And try to never wear a frown

I’ll clear a path so they can see

And help them choose what they can be.

 

This is my prayer, my utmost plea

To be the best that I can be

And I won’t give it up for fame

Or to establish a great name.

 

For in my simple estimation

There is no better occupation

Than the role I play of mother

For it stands high above all others.

 

Her children arise and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praises her. Proverbs 31:28, NIV
