I remember when my child was no bigger than my hand
As she grew I was more aware of life inside me
What a happiness I felt the first time she kicked me
I knew in my heart she'd be a strong child

All the labor and pain of the day she arrived
I forgot when I gazed on her red face
As I looked into her tightly closed eyes
My heart welled up with a song of praise. CHORUS

Chorus: What a joy, what a joy to be a mother
to watch my baby grow every day.
To see God's precious handiwork
before my humbled eyes
Oh it makes me want to kneel and praise Him
Oh it makes me praise my Lord
Yes, it makes me praise you, Lord.

Then she nursed at my breast and the milk flowed forth
from the fountain my Lord had given me
And she fell asleep by my side on the bed
And hiccuped as she dreamed a peaceful dream.

I remember how I felt when she took her first step
from her daddy's arms right into mine
Then she stumbled and fell into a mother's hug
but she took three more steps next time she tried. CHORUS

And my baby will grow up, discover worlds of her own
She'll come home with mud on her face
And she'll grow to know the love of Jesus Christ
And in the kingdom of God she'll find her place.
She'll find her place. CHORUS
