Woman, Wife, Mother—A Song to Sing

As you read and ponder the lyrics to the five songs in this timeless musical presentation, "Woman, Wife, Mother—A Song to Sing," you will be inspired to be your best self while embracing these three divine roles.

A Song to Sing

There’s a song to sing
of the woman who can bring
the tender mercies of the Father
here to earth.

With warm and gentle hands
she builds castles in the sand
while nurturing young children
from their birth.

The spirit shines forth from her eyes
her laughter lightens other lives
she gives to all the gift of peace
and leaves a song to sing.

There’s a song to sing . . .

There is a song!

The Love of Children

VERSE 1
I stand beside the little children
but find I’m much too tall
to hear their softly spoken words
or wipe a tear that falls.
I find that I must humbly kneel
and hold their hands in mine
to see the world as they do,
through love that’s in their eyes.

CHORUS
The love of children is something very dear,
so hold them tightly and your love will fade away their fears.
The love of children holds promises of joy
found within the laughter of each tiny girl and boy.

VERSE 2
A child hears music in the breezes
that ruffles up his hair
and sees the gentle hand of God
when raindrops blur the air.
And Mother Nature’s perfume
delights his little nose
eager hands are reaching
to touch a velvet rose.

VERSE 3
I need to love the little children
with all they freely give
to touch, and see, and hear, and know,
and like a child live.
Then gladly I will guide them
with a heart of charity.
With patient understanding,
I’ll feel their love for me.

I Am A Woman, A Wife, and a Mother

VERSE 1
I am a woman, confident and proud;
I do only the things the Lord allows.
I can be the person I want to be—
a respected lady of great nobility.

Knowledge and wisdom are my goals,
for here are hidden treasures untold.
With strength from Father up above,
my heart overflows with eternal love.

Help me, O Lord, to understand
why being a woman is eternally grand.

VERSE 2
I am a wife to my husband dear—
a man knowing trials, failures, and fears.
To him I shall always give only my best,
for with this devotion he’ll feel truly blessed.

He needs my love, my hopes, my prayers,
and a welcoming heart to unburden his cares.
I want never to judge him or criticize,
but with purity untarnished be only a light.

With my hand in his, together we will be
sealed forever through all eternity.

VERSE 3
I am a mother strong and true;
nurturing children is the work I do.
I have desires to create and excel;
spiritual truths are the stories I tell.

With children young or fully grown,
I provide the example of a good home.
This is my greatest, important calling
and when faithfully done is so fulfilling.

My children someday will bless my name,
and my joy with them will always remain.

VERSE 4
I am a woman, a wife, and a mother—
the work that I do can be done by no other.
Increasing family unity is up to me
and helping my family to lovingly be.

Teachings and goals that I can give
will help my family to eternally live.
The harmony I desire can be maintained
by encouraging all without any blame.

My work that I do can be done by no other—
I am a woman, a wife, and a mother.

Love, Love, Love One Another

VERSE 1
Who are these little ones standing beside you?
Who are these young ones growing older each day?
How important are their prayers? How important are their cares,
and their hungering souls, and their questioning ways?

Is it too much to ask
before you finish that task
to put aside what you’re doing
and love them?

CHORUS
Love, love, love one another.
Cherish your children each sister and brother.
Love, love, love one another.
Cherish your children each sister and brother.

VERSE 2
Who is that handsome man standing beside you?
Who is that good man you wed long ago?
How important are his feelings? How important are his dreams,
and his hopes, and his desires that only he knows?

Is it too much to be
the kind of wife that he needs
to put aside what you’re doing,
and love him?

CHORUS
Love, love, love one another.
Think of your husband before any other.
Love, love, love one another.
Think of your husband before any other.

VERSE 3

Who’s that pretty woman standing beside you?
Who is that lady you wed long ago?
How important are her feelings, how important are her dreams,
and her hopes, and her desires that only she knows?

Is it too much to be
the kind of husband that she needs
to put aside what you’re doing, and love her?

CHORUS
Love, love, love one another.
Think of your own wife before any other.
Love, love, love one another.
Think of your own wife before any other.

VERSE 4
Love your little ones standing beside you.
Love your best friend you wed long ago.
When you smile at your sweetheart, or take a child by the hand,
You encircle them all with the love that you show.

And your family will be filled
with harmony and peace,
so put aside what you’re doing
and love them.

CHORUS
Love, love, love one another.
Strengthen your family by loving each other.
Love, love, love one another.
Strengthen your family by loving each other.

Born to Be a Queen

I’m a woman with a song to sing
of glories that my works will bring
if I am faithful to the trust
the Lord has given me.

I have roads to cross and hills to climb;
great books to read and words to rhyme
if I am faithful to the calls
my Lord will give in time.

For I was born to be a queen
and I will live in dignity
and strive for that inheritance
that my Father has for me.

Yes, I was born to be a queen
and I will live eternally
and wear the crown of righteousness
promised me.
