Mother's Love

By HOLDEN, JOHN JARVIS
THERE is no Love like a Mother's--
 'Tis the Sun that shineth forth;
There is no Truth like a Mother's.
 'Tis the Star that pointeth North;
There is no Hope like a Mother's--
 'Tis the April in the clod;
There is no Trust like a Mother's--
 'Tis the Charity of God:
The Love and Truth, the Hope and Trust
That make the mortal more than dust.
