A New Mothers Day Song - Words And Music

On this past Mothers Day (2006), I was hoping to find a simple little Mothers Day song to sing to various mothers I know (my own mother having passed away). I wanted to find something similar to "Happy Birthday To You," which would be short, happy, simple, easy to remember. But I couldn't seem to find anything like that. Suddenly this melody popped into my head, and I wrote it down and made a MIDI file of it. Then came the words.
Here it is, placed in the Public Domain for everyone to use freely. Enjoy.

HAPPY MOTHERS DAY TO YOU - by Rev. Bill McGinnis, 2006 - Public Domain

Happy Mothers Day to you,
For everything you do;
From the morning to night,
You make everything right.
Happy Mothers Day to you!

In memory of Christine H. McGinnis

"Rob Kall has certainly acquired the firsthand experiences and knowledge gained through interviews to deliver some interesting insights about the "bottom-up" information revolution. Whereas the old 'top-down' systems created stove-pipes and excessive secrecy that blocked information sharing and led to the 'failure to connect the dots' before 9-11, the bottom-up approach should be the main fix. Kall's concept would seem to interface equally well with the founding fathers' idealism in setting forth their democratic theory of governance as with the realism that makes the multi-sourced, bottom-up Wikipedia work. As someone who shares my support of both government and corporate whistleblowing -- which is nothing more than encouraging greater horizontal sharing of information, I commend Rob Kall's important work on this topic."
