I ALSO HAVE A FATHER

When I'm perplexed and do not know any further action to take
When all forms of reason have escaped me and I’m left dry of intelligence
And yet your non-quiet demand can be heard miles away
All because you look to me to decipher your unspoken demands
And you expect that as your mother, I should know all things

But then, I have limitations
I am but as human as the next person to me
I am your mother, yes
But I cannot read into your mind or body system

It is in dire situations such as this that I remind myself
I also have a Father
And because he gave you to me, he knows all about you

And so, I am persuaded to press on
As my father has with Him, all your remedies.
