Religion

Any Mother

by William Canton 1845–1926

Religion

So sweet, so strange — so strange, so sweet
Beyond expression,
O little Blossom!
To sit and feel my bosom beat
With glad possession;
For you are ours, our very own,
None other's, ours;
God made you of our two hearts alone,
As God makes flowers
Of earth and sunshine,
O little Blossom!
