Lyrics The Sweetest Gift - The Judds
One
day
a
mother,
come
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
She
did
not
bring
to
him
(bring
to
him)
Parole
or
pardon
(pardon
free)
She
brought
no
silver
(brought
no
gold)
No
pomp
nor
style
(him
to
see)
It
was
a
halo
(halo
bright)
Sent
down
from
heaven
(heaven's
light)
The
sweetest
gift
(a
mother's
smile)
Her
boy
had
wandered,
far
from
the
far
side
Though
she
had
pleaded,
with
him
each
night
But
not
a
word
did
she
ever
utter
That
told
her
heartaches,
her
smile
was
bright
She
did
not
bring
to
him
Parole
or
pardon
She
brought
no
silver
(brought
no
gold)
No
pomp
nor
style
(him
to
see)
It
was
a
halo
(halo
bright)
Sent
down
from
heaven
(heaven's
light)
The
sweetest
gift,
a
mother's
smile
She
left
a
smile,
you
can
remember
She's
gone
to
heaven,
from
heartache's
free
Them
bars
around
you,
will
never
change
her
He
was
her
baby,
and
there
will
be
She
did
not
bring
to
him
(bring
to
him)
Parole
or
pardon
(pardon
free)
She
brought
no
silver
(brought
no
gold)
No
pomp
nor
style
(him
to
see)
It
was
a
halo
(halo
bright)
Sent
down
from
heaven
(heaven's
light)
The
sweetest
gift,
a
mother's
smile
It
was
a
halo
(halo
bright)
Sent
down
from
heaven
(heaven's
light)
The
sweetest
gift,
a
mother's
smile
