When God Made You My Mother

I bet you could've used a minute
Just a little time alone
But you let me be your little shadow
Following wherever you would go
Then I got a little older
And you gave me space to grow
I don't ever seem to tell you enough but
I want you to know

When God made you my mother
He knew who I'd need
When he picked you from the others
He could already see
That you would be my hero
And everything I want to be
When God madе you my mother
He was being good to mе

I come to you with all my secrets
And you never, ever judge
And when I'm falling in my weakness
You give me strength to stand back up
No amount of miles could separate us
No place where I don't feel your love
You say I'm the gift that heaven gave you
But I'm the lucky one

When God made you my mother
He knew who I'd need
When he picked you from the others
He could already see
That you would be my hero
And everything I want to be
When God made you my mother
He was being good to me

If I'm ever a mother
I wanna be like you
If he picks me from the others
I'm going to try to fill your shoes
'Cause mama you're my hero
And everything I want to be
When God made you my mother
He was being good to me
Yeah, he was being good to me
