o blessed day of motherhood

O blessed day of motherhood
We lift our hearts in praise
To thank the Source of every good
Thy joy crowns all our days
O God our Father bless this day
Enrich its golden store
Of blessed mother love and may
Thy children Thee adore
O gracious day of motherhood
Our faith by God increased
Hath each alluring foe withstood
Our souls He hath released
O God our Father bless this day
Enrich its golden store
Of gracious mother love and may
Thy children Thee adore

O precious day of motherhood
Teach us in Christ to find
The greater gifts of brotherhood
Bring peace to all mankind
O God our Father bless this day
Enrich its golden store
Of precious mother love and may
Thy children Thee adore

O wondrous day of motherhood
Thy love to all abound
Beside the cross once Mary stood
Again let love be crowned
O God our Father bless this day
Enrich its golden store
Of wondrous mother love and may
Thy children Thee adore
