Mother - Love & The Outcome

I know that it’s Your birthday

We’re singing songs to You

I love to light the candles

Like we always do

But I’ve gotta say this Christmas

My mind is somewhere is on another

Sometimes I think about Your mother

She was only sixteen

Probably long brown hair

Walking in her sandals

I wish that I’d been there

I wonder if she wondered

If You should’ve chosen another

Sometimes I think about Your mother

Was she tough or was she tender?

Did You listen when she’d speak?

Oh, I bet You trouble crazy

When You wouldn’t go to sleep

I’m sure we had a lot in common

I bet I would’ve loved her

Yeah, sometimes I think about Your mother

I’ve got my own little boy now

He’s running like the wind

Eyes as bright as stars

Oh, the world must seem so big

I wonder if she looked at You

And felt the same way that I do

Oh, sometimes I think about Your mother

Was she tough or was she tender?

Did You listen when she’d speak?

Oh, I bet You trouble crazy

When You wouldn’t go to sleep

I’m sure we had a lot in common

I bet I would’ve loved her

Yeah, sometimes I think about Your mother

Did she know where You were headed?

Did she know what You would do?

When she watched You give Your life

Did it break her heart in two?

She might say she’s nothing special

Just the same as anyone

But what’s it like to be the mother of God?

I know that it’s Your birthday

And we’re singing songs to You

But I see the story different

Now that I’m a mama too

So I’ve gotta say this Christmas

My mind is on another

Yeah, sometimes I think about Your mother

Oh, sometimes I think about Your mother
