Dear Lord, I have to ask, why me?
I'm not ready for this...a mother to be
My heart is too heavy and my mind isn't right
My life is unstable and I'm too tired to fight
It's an every day struggle to care for number 1
What business do I have trying to raise a son?
This child is a blank slate and mine has yet to be filled out
What can I possibly teach him with a heart full of doubt?
How will I sooth him when he begins to cry?
Do I encourage his dreams when it means I have to lie?
How do I teach him to be so much better than me?
Do I show him tough love? And if so to what degree?
Can I instill my ideas or should he learn on his own?
How will I support him? I'm all alone
When his pride is hurt and his spirit is broken
What words of wisdom or advice should be spoken?
How do I teach him honor and the importance of humility?What tools will he need for a life of prosperity?
How will I bestow upon him all of my love?
How do I instill religion or faith for the man above?
How will I shelter him from cruelty...the wolves in sheep's clothes?
Will I have the answers for the questions he may pose?
He flutters in my womb growing more each day
Soon enough he'll be here and that I can't delay
So please Lord, what do I do?
I'm putting every ounce of my faith in to you
Dear Lord, why me?
I'm not ready for this.....a mother to be
Please hear this mother's plea
Please bless this child and help to guide me
