Letra de The Sweetest Gift (A Mother's Smile)

One day a mother Come 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 to him (Bring to him) Parole or pardon (Pardon free) She brought no silver (Brought no gold) No pomp nor style (Him to see) It was a halo (Halo bright) Sent down from heaven (Heaven's light) 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 left a smile You can remember She's gone to heaven From heartache's free Them bars around you Will never change her He was her baby An error will be It was a halo bright Sent down from heaven's light The sweetest gift A mother's smile
