Lyrics
THANK YOU FOR LETTING ME BE A MOTHER
Dear Father these children that though gravest me
Have all grown up quickly and are out of their own
I miss them so badly, they live far away
But I know my kids are just here on load.
They really are you kids, just given to me
To raise them and love them and teach them of thee
And oh how I love the. I?m proud as can be
They turned out to be the best people you?ll see
Chorus
Thank you for letting me be a mother
Thank you for letting me partner with thee
For sending my children down here from heaven
So I can give them back safely to thee.
Thank you for letting me be a mother
For all the joy my children bring me.
Please bless my children to always stay close
To you Heavenly Father. Our family too
A celestial family we always will be
Throughout eternity when we?re all back with you
When I can?t be with them I worry so much
Help me remember they?re under your wing
And that you love the, more than I can
When, I remember, it makes my heart sing.
Repeat Chorus
