Honour Christian Mothers
(Tune: Onward Christian Soldier)

1. Honour Christian mothers
   Instruments of God
   Raising faithful families
   Worshiping the Lord
   Following his commandments
   Showing us the way:
   Love and faith and kindness
   Teaching us to pray
Chorus
Honour Christian mothers,
Instruments of God;
Raising faithful families,
Worshiping the Lord.
2. "Let it be", say mothers
   Trusting to obey,
   Finding strength and courage
   Grace for every day
   Challenges surround us
   But we will not fear
   God's love will sustain us,
   Help, our cross to bear.
Chorus
3. God be with our mothers
   Who have gone before,
   Certain of his promise;
   Life forevermore.
   In his many mansions,
   Love again we'll share,
   He will take away all sorrow,
   Wipe away each tear
Chorus
4. Honour Christian mothers
   Heaven's gift of love
   Join with them in service
   To the Lord above.
   Follow their example,
   Let your lights so shine
   All will see your goodness
   Praise the One Devine
Chorus
5. Onward still ye mothers,
   Tho' the time will come;
   Sons will leave their parents,
   Daughters leave their homes,
   We'll remain united, Mother's legacy;
   One in love and faithfulness
   One in Charity
Chorus
