Verse 1

In the quiet of the morning light,

You were there before the sun

Every scraped knee, every sleepless night,

You never said you’re done

Your hands held dreams I couldn’t see,

Your voice calmed every fear

You made a home out of loving me,

Year after year

Chorus

You’re my first hello, my safest place,

My shelter from the storm

In your eyes I learned what grace looks like,

What it means to be strong

If the world feels cold and I lose my way,

Your love still pulls me through

My heart will always know your name—

Mom, I’m because of you

Verse 2

You taught me how to fall and rise,

How to bend and not break

You believed in me on borrowed hope,

For my future’s sake

Every sacrifice, every silent tear,

Every prayer you made

Built the road that led me here,

I walk it every day

Chorus

You’re my first hello, my safest place,

My shelter from the storm

In your arms I learned what courage is,

Before I knew the word

When I’m tired, when I’m afraid,

Your love still feels brand new

My heart will always know your name—

Mom, I’m because of you

Bridge

And someday when I say your words,

With love just like you do

I’ll hear your strength inside my voice,

See your light shining through

Final Chorus

You’re my always, you’re my home,

No matter where I roam

Every step I take, every dream I chase,

Your love is in my bones

If I only sing one truth in life,

Let this one be true:

All the best parts of who I am

Begin and end with you

Outro

So here’s my song, my thank you note,

For all you’ve given me

A mother’s love is where my life

Learned how to be free
