Mother & Daughter - By Rev Denise Gillard & Caprice Duncan
For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Jeremiah 29:11
"A Black Mother's Lullaby Prayer"
My dear sweet child I sing this song,
I pray your steps will never go wrong.
I always hope the best for you,
Put God, my love, in all you do.
I know its hard sometime to see,
But hear these words that come from me-
You are amazing, bright and strong
And though sometimes the night seems long,
You will achieve your heart's desire,
I surround you with love and Holy Ghost fire!
Be humble and kind, be brave and true,
I know that the Lord will see you through.
You are a gift, a treasure, a gem-
If they tell you different, don't believe them!
Just look to the light, the night will soon end,
Stand on God's Word and do not bend.
My dear sweet child I sing this song,
I pray your steps will never go wrong.
