So Many Times
So many times you were there for me
I can't begin to count them all
When I aimed up couldn't see my way
and always seemed to fall
You were there for me when others tired of me
To help me find my way
Sometimes my nights were long
seemingly never turned into day
My heart was broken and seemed it would never mend
Relationships severed that I thought would last unto the end
Many nights I cried and days even more
When I least thought you could come, you were there at my door
You talked to me and walked with me
more importantly you prayed for me
You never gave up on what you knew I could be
While others laughed and mocked at me
When my appetite tight failed
you fed me more of your love
Pure as snow
like a dove flying above
So many times you have been there for me
Without you mother, I could never be.
