God is my mommy.
She’s all I need.
She gives me a soft place for naps;
she takes me to safe places.
When I’m upset she holds me
’till I become myself again.
She leads me by the hand.
Quite the pair, my mommy and I!
When I am scared to death
you are right there. No worry.
Your strong hand and firm voice save me.
You set the table for me and
the siblings I’ve been fighting with.
You wash me up with that gleam in your eye.
My plate is full.
Your motherly love stays with me every day.
I will be your beloved kid forever.
Sweet.
