First Line: There is no love like a mother's
Last Line: That make the mortal more than dust.
Subject(s): Mothers
THERE is no Love like a Mother's--
'Tis the Sun that shineth forth;
There is no Truth like a Mother's.
'Tis the Star that pointeth North;
There is no Hope like a Mother's--
'Tis the April in the clod;
There is no Trust like a Mother's--
'Tis the Charity of God:
The Love and Truth, the Hope and Trust
That make the mortal more than dust.
