"In My Mother's Eyes" lyrics

The very face
Of honesty
Quiet grace
And dignity
Love as pure as it can be
In my mother's eyes

When times were hard, she had a way
Of making things turn out OK
Seldom seen a cloudy day
In my mother's eyes

The smell of home cooking fills every room
As she hums a simple melody
And though she might sing just a bit out of tune
She fills our lives with harmony

From nursery rhymes to rock'n'roll
To silver hair and heart of gold
A page of history is told
In my mother's eyes

All the love our hearts could hold
In my mother's eyes
