A Mother's Prayer


(Sung to the tune of A Child's Prayer from 
the LDS Primary Children's Songbook.)

Heavenly Father, are you really there,
And do you hear and answer every mother’s prayer?
I thought that my life would be a dream
But now that it’s here I want to sit and scream.
Heavenly Father, I remember when
I would see older women peck like mother hens
I’d pray that children would come to me
Cuz I’d never rant or yell, but perfect be.

I need your help.
I’m going crazy.
These are your children,
Tell me what to do now.
He hears my prayer.
He sees I’m trying,
So I’ll climb out of this closet and go find my kids.
