I’ve been the mom who runs carefree singing merrily,
When hope is found in the Lord, my mind is on that which is heavenly,
I’ve been the mom proud of her choices that finds herself playing free,
I’ve been the mom who wades through debt with heavy chains a'clanging,
I’ve been the mom who people love and welcome at the door,
I’ve also been the mom that some people choose to ignore,
I’ve been the mom who feels secure in how I’m training babies,
I’ve been the mom who finds herself at a loss with what to do lately,
I’ve been the mom that looks content and the one that appears to be struggling,
I've been the mom who's outside is clean but my inner heart is crumbling,
I’ve been the mom who juggles plates from the break of dawn,
I’ve also been the mom who tries all day just to put pants on,
I’ve known joy and fear and deep depression, and walked around town with the tears right there,
I’ve been encouraged, challenged, blessed, and provided for by other moms who’ve shared,
I’ve felt the shame over my kid’s choices and struggled with my identity,
I’ve had to choose to recognize who is really the enemy,
I’ve had fresh and salt water flow from my mouth and needed to repent daily,
I’ve humbly had to ask other moms and friends to graciously pray for me,
I’ve felt strong then scared,
I’ve been rich and felt poor,
I’ve felt content,
While other times wanting more,
I’ve questioned God and wondered why He made me the way He did,
That is when He always reminds me that more than a mom,
I’m a beloved kid,
I'm His
