The Sweetest Gift - Louise Morrissey

Written by：James B. Coats

One day a mother went to a prison

To see an erring but precious son

She told the warden how much she loved him

It did not matter what he had done

She did not bring him a parole or pardon

She brought no silver no pomp or style

It was a halo bright sent down from heaven

The sweetest gift a mother's smile

Her boy had wandered

Far from the far side

Though she had pleaded

With him each night

But not a word did

She ever utter

That told her heartaches

Her smile was bright

She did not bring to him a parole or pardon

She brought no silver no pomp or style

It was a halo bright sent down from heaven

The sweetest gift a mother's smile

She left a smile you can remember

She's gone to heaven from heartaches free

Those walls around you would never change her

You were her baby and e'er will be

She did not bring to him a parole or pardon

She brought no silver no pomp or style

It was a halo bright sent down from heaven

The sweetest gift a mother's smile

The sweetest gift a mother's smile
