A Favorite Forgotten Carol

She had a way with children and she molded them like clay 

She found the greatness in them all and she nurtured them each day

Though she never had been married or had children of her own

She could help the toughest child be good

And so she would not be misunderstood 

She told her story every chance she could

Her story:

Mary let me hold her baby

Her newborn son

Though I'd never be a mother

I felt like one

Mary let me hold her baby

So she could rest

And ever since that night I held him

My life's been blessed

Those like me who can't have children

Still can be mothers

Something in his eyes convinced me

I could serve so many others

Mary let me hold her baby

So soft and warm

Mary let me hold her baby

And I was reborn

Something in his eyes convinced me
I could serve so many others

Mary let me hold her baby
So soft and warm
Mary let me hold her baby
And I was re-born
