When I was young you held my hand
Guiding me gently through life's vast land
With every sunrise your love would shine
Mother you're the sun forever mine
Your love is like the sun warm and bright
Chasing away the darkest night
You light my path you're always there
Mother your love is beyond compare
Through stormy days and skies so gray
You were my sunshine lighting the way
With every dawn a new day starts
Your love like sunlight warms my heart
Your love is like the sun warm and bright
Chasing away the darkest night
You light my path you're always there
Mother your love is beyond compare
When night falls and darkness surrounds
You are the moon your light abounds
Showing me paths where shadows lie
Mother you're my guide my star in the sky
