hazel dickens & alice gerrard – the sweetest gift a mother’s smile lyrics
[verse 1: hazel d+ckens & alice gerrard]
one day a mother came to a prison
to see an erring, but precious son
she told the warden how much she loved him
it did not matter what he had done
[chorus: hazel d+ckens & alice gerrard, both]
she did not bring to him parole or pardon (free)
she brought no silver (brought no gold)
no pomp or style (for him to see)
it was a halo bright sent down from heaven’s light
the sweetest gift, a mother’s smile
[verse 2: hazel d+ckens & alice gerrard]
her boy had wandered far from the fireside
though she had pleaded with him each night
yet not a word did she ever utter
that told her heart ache, her smile was bright
[chorus: hazel d+ckens & alice gerrard, both]
she did not bring to him parole or pardon (free)
she brought no silver (brought no gold)
no pomp or style (for him to see)
it was a halo bright sent down from heaven’s light
the sweetest gift, a mother’s smile
[verse 3: hazel d+ckens & alice gerrard]
she left a smile you can remember
she’s gone to heaven from heartaches free
the bars around you will never change her
you were her baby and e’er will be
[chorus: hazel d+ckens & alice gerrard, both]
she did not bring to him parole or pardon (free)
she brought no silver (brought no gold)
no pomp or style (for him to see)
it was a halo bright sent down from heaven’s light
the sweetest gift, a mother’s smile
it was a halo bright sent down from heaven’s light
the sweetest gift, a mother’s smile
