I look at you and see my very first dawn
My beautiful boy, my precious firstborn
You carry a light that words can't define
A beautiful soul, I'm so blessed you're mine
Every time you flash that beautiful smile
You make every tear and trial worthwhile
ChorusJames, I love you with all of my heart
You've been my blessing right from the start
You're a beautiful soul, so gentle and pure
And whenever you need me, my love is secure
But always remember what I told you before
Mama loves you, but God loves you more
Verse 2I cherish the days when you take me to church
Feeding our spirits, no need to search
Then we go shopping, just walking the aisles
Taking me out to eat, sharing the miles
You tell me your jokes and you make me laugh
I treasure each step on this tender path
ChorusJames, I love you with all of my heart
You've been my blessing right from the start
You're a beautiful soul, so gentle and pure
And whenever you need me, my love is secure
But always remember what I told you before
Mama loves you, but God loves you more
BridgeJust enjoying each other, the time that we spend
My wonderful son, my comfort, my friend
Keep holding your faith when the shadows fall
'Cause the grace from above watches over us all
Final ChorusOh James, I love you with all of my heart
You've been my blessing right from the start
You're a beautiful soul, so gentle and pure
And whenever you need me, my love is secure
Hold onto these words, today and forevermore
Mama loves you, but God loves you more
Yeah, Mama loves you, James, but God loves you more
