I wish you love
A life to share
And when you find
Someone to care
I hope that time
Is kind to you
And that all
your dreams
come true
This is a mother's
Christmas wish
for you

I wish you peace
Of heart and mind
To use your strength
But still be kind
To learn to give
To learn to lose
To live with truth
in all you do
This is a mother's
Christmas wish
for you

And when you wake
on Christmas day
With children
of your own
I know
then you'll see
What you've been
to me
You are
the greatest gift
of all

A child was born
On Christmas day
A shining star
To lead the way
And Mary's love
Was pure and true
And that's the way
that I love you
I pray that love
would guide you
through
This is a mother's
Christmas wish
for you
