Woman of Love Lyrics

It hit like a brick falling into the dirt

When we found out that Mom was leaving this earth

We watched the whole fight as she struggled and hurt

Against all the odds and for all she was worth

What made my mother so happy and bright?

What kept her emotions all locked up so tight?

And what made all the weight that she was holding so light?

I can't even fathom what held her upright!

Oh but Lord I know this much is true

She gave all those worries up to you!

That woman of love

That woman of love

And whatever conclusions I choose to hold near

I know that my mother wouldn't live in fear

And I know that status quo isn't all it appears

She lived that example for almost 10 years!

So whenever I'm feeling that my life is too rough

I think about my mother who defined the word tough

And I'll think of how her suffering was never enough

To show to us anything other than love!

Oh but Lord I know this much is true

She gave all those worries up to you!

That woman of love

That woman of love

Just as she showed us all until the end

There is nothing more sacred than our family and friends

There are no other people that I'd rather depend

And I'm proud you are with me as we learn to mend

From our fears of sickness and hurt from our pasts

Let's all stay together on this untraversed path

Let's always remember what Mom showed us last

That love for each other is all we have left!

Oh but Lord I know this much is true

She gave all her worries up to you!

That woman of love

That woman of love
