Sing, Mothers! Sing!

My favorite quote from Sarah Plain and Tall: Of their prospective step-mother Caleb asks, "Does she sing?" The reply, "Tell Caleb I sing." Singing. Do we recognize this as an essential part of mothering? Caleb didn't ask, "Does she sing WELL?" Only, "Does she sing?" Sing to your children mothers, even during pregnancy, no matter if you are talented or not. With practice you will see improvement, but regardless, to your babes you will sound like an angel.

Verse
Sweet, sweet, baby of mine
Hush precious baby
There's no need to whine
You're precious, so precious
Such a precious gift from God above
Given for me and your sweet daddy to love

Chorus
Baby, my baby
You are God's miracle, Life's pinnacle
There is no luxury, that compares to thee
Verse
Baby, my baby
You mean much more to me
So much more to me
Than a diamond ring
white pearls on a string
Designer clothes
Painted toes
An SUV or a plasma TV

Chorus
Baby, my baby
You are my luxury,
my luxury
and I'd give up all I own
just to hold you tight

Verse
Baby, my baby
You are more lovely, so much more lovely
Than a soft sea breeze
Autumn leaves leaves on the trees,
A waterfall,
A birds love call
A horse on the run or a setting sun
Chorus
Baby, my baby
You're precious
So precious, Baby
Hear Susana's Rendition

Susana,

I LOVE this song. I love what you are doing. This has to be one of the best blogs in the world. Glory to God!

I posted two renditions, but want you to see if you like them before or not. If you do, choose one and save the other as a draft. But, I'm willing to rerecord and try to sing better as it is pretty early in the morning right now and after being up so long my voice is weary.

I just love what you're doing here. Please keep it up!

Love,
Lori

Lori,

My children and I thoroughly enjoyed your renditions of this song. This is my childrens' favorite song of all the songs I have written. Your children and very fortunate to be able to have you sing this to them. In your voice, and the lyrics you've added, ("soft sweet skin, I wanna kiss you again") your love for your children really comes through. I can feel your joy. I look forward to hearing you sing more.
