| We cook, we clean and we teach We do it all, we do everything We wash, we fold and we sweepWe know how to keep a house clean We listen, we talk and we tuck inWe don’t hesitate to discipline We rise up early and we go to bed lateWe do it all, every single day Happy Mother’s Day

| God you’ve blessed me each and every day You’ve blessed me in such a marvelous way You’ve blessed me through all my joy and pain You’ve blessed through sunshine and rain You’ve blessed me through my ups and downs You’ve blessed me and turned my situations around You’ve blessed me and I can’t say thank you enough You’ve blessed me and kept me from giving up You’ve blessed me through sickness and good health You’ve blessed me through bad finances and wealth You’ve blessed me in parenting my child alone You’ve blessed me to single parent on my own You’ve blessed me on my way to work You’ve blessed me and guided me to the right church You’ve blessed me and I can’t say thank you enough You’ve blessed me and kept me from giving up You’ve blessed me through the good and the bad You’ve blessed me when my father past You’ve blessed me to pick up the pieces and move on You’ve blessed me and helped me stay strong You’ve blessed me and sometimes I just don’t understand You’ve blessed me because you’re my father and my best friend

You're worth the wait, this I know
You're worth the wait, because God says so
You don't need anyone testing you out
You don't have to experiment or show your body off
You're special, don't you agree?
You're special, just look in the mirror and see
You're worth the wait, even if a boy doesn't think so
You're worth the wait, because God says so
You don't have to sacrifice your spirit, mind and body
There's nothing wrong with walking, talking and acting like a lady
You don't have to engage in sinful activities to feel good about yourself
You don't have to run around with boys like everyone else
Don't subject yourself to disrespect
You should think more highly and want more for yourself
You're worth the wait even if your friends don't think so
You're worth the wait, you don't have to run around like the other girls you know
You don't have to always hang out and party
Stop being so quick to get out and run the streets
You can stay at home with your parents some times
Communicate and share with them what's on your heart and mind
You're worth the wait, this I know and believe
You're worth the wait, just trust God, wait and see

So Blessed I am so blessed to have been raised under God's words So blessed to know how to pray when I'm stressed or feeling scared I am so blessed to be able to discern when something isn't right So blessed to know when the devil is trying to attack my life I am so blessed to know not to play the devil's game So blessed to know how and when to call on God's name I am so blessed to have Godly women pour into me So blessed that I have a Godly mother indeed I am so blessed that I had a good father for 34 years of my life So blessed that my father and I understood each other just before he died I am so blessed to have friends and family who love and constantly pray for me So blessed that they are always encouraging I am so blessed that God has blessed me to take care of my child So blessed that I didn't end up on the streets, out of control and running wild I am so blessed that I know not to get upset over things I can't change So blessed that I can dance and shouteven in the midst of life's storms and rain I am so blessed that I can move forward in spite of deaths, losses, heartaches and conflicts with family So blessed that I can stand strong and face anything thrown at me I am so blessed, for God has been truly good in my life So blessed, for he continues to bless me each and every time I am so blessed because God always makes a way So blessed because he takes care of me and my family each and every day I am so blessed to have God's protection and his love So blessed to know that he's a friend I can depend on I am so blessed that he stands between me and the beast So blessed to have God on my side, fighting for me I am so blessed to know when to step back and relax So blessed to know when to leave matters in God's hands I am so blessed and I just wanted to share my blessings with you And wish you, my friends and family...wonderful blessings too Ya’ll don’t want to know who or what inspired this poem. Let’s just say, God knew I needed to write this one!
