Mabel's Quiet Flame

Lyrics

[Verse 1] There's a woman with a quiet flame Who gives before she's ever asked She carries more than most would know And never lets the moment pass When someone's hurting, she is there With open arms and steady hands [Chorus] You are stronger than you'll ever see A love that holds this family Through every storm you plant your feet And somehow make the broken whole and sweet So let these words remind you now You deserve the love you give out [Verse 2] You forget to rest, you forget to breathe Too busy lifting everyone But Mabel, darling, hear me now You are not meant to come undone The way you pour into our kids That fire in you lights up their sun [Chorus] You are stronger than you'll ever see A love that holds this family Through every storm you plant your feet And somehow make the broken whole and sweet So let these words remind you now You deserve the love you give out [Bridge] So lay your burdens down tonight Let someone hold you for a while Your faith has carried us this far Now Mabel, let me carry ours [Verse 3] Every friend who's felt your grace Every child who knows your name They'll tell you what I've always known That Mabel's love is not in vain Your courage built this home we share And nothing else could be the same [Chorus] You are stronger than you'll ever see A love that holds this family Through every storm you plant your feet And somehow make the broken whole and sweet So let these words remind you now You deserve the love you give out [Outro] Happy Mother's Day, my Mabel dear The greatest gift is having you right here
