Traveling down a path of tears
I see my family drawing near
Traveling down a path of love
I hear my ancestors calling from above
Traveling down a path of thorns
I see my friends always torn
Traveling down a path so true
I know my Father will follow through

When you look in my eyes
What do you behold
Can you see my fear
Is there love hiding near
Can you see my pride
Emotions being pushed aside
When you look at my smile
What do you behold
Can you see it wavering
Is there strength in savoring
Can you see it fall
Is there light there at all
When you look at my hands
What do [...]

Smiling as a child sings
To hear the words of gold
The smile upon her face
As sweet as ever told
The air is blowing through the trees
Right down the walkway
The baby’s breath upon my hair
So small and white are they
I smile as I walk the aisle
The flowers fall from a glove
My friend walks slowly behind me
To marry a [...]

The woman whose arms reach out for me
Tears in her eyes, just after I am born
Knowing how precious a gift
The woman who holds my hand
As she teaches me to walk
Knowing soon I will be running
The woman who hugs me goodbye
As I get on the bus for my first day of school
Knowing life is already [...]

10,000 warriors standing tall
Taught by their mothers
Be honest, brave, kind and true
Thousands born each day
Taught by their mothers
Be honest, brave, kind and true
Prophets born of old
Taught by their mothers
Be honest, brave, kind and true
Pioneer children, singing as they walk
Taught by their mothers
Be honest, brave, kind and true
A child of God, standing tall
Taught by her mother
Be [...]

Images flash before my eyes
I see my Savior with love
Shining from His Eyes
As He is beaten and spit upon
His love never wavering
Oh, how painful it must be
To have those you love, crucify you
Images flash before my eyes
I see my Savior with love
So strong, As He watches me
A tear rolling down His check
Pleading for me
Oh, how [...]

As tears fall upon my cheeks
I wipe them away
Trying to hide my soul
Not letting anyone in
None are allowed to see the tears
For seeing the tears they will see my soul
Feeling like a success I go my way
Each day I hide behind a mask of fear
None are allowed to see the tears
One has seen and always [...]

As I sit alone in a crowded room
Keeping to myself, I bow my head
Not making eye contact with anyone
For fear that they will see
Who I really am
Next to me a seat is taken
I hear a polite hello
I nod my head not wanting to reply
The opening song I hear
And touches deep in my heart
As time goes [...]

A child playing nice
Watching a mother
Seeing examples of faith & love
A child dropped off at school
Watching a mother
Seeing examples of strength & integrity
A child driving off to a party
Watching a mother
Seeing examples of braveness & virtue
A child, hand taken in marriage
Watching a mother
Seeing examples of respect & caring
A child, holding their baby tight
Watching a mother
Seeing [...]

I’m not a super mom
I’m not even a mom
I’m not invincible
I’m just me
I’m not an A+ student
I’m not a computer geek
I’m not invincible
I’m just me
I’m not the best friend in the world
I’m not a “Goody Two Shoes”
I’m not invincible
I’m just me
Someday I’ll be a mom
Someday I’ll do it all
Someday I’ll be invincible
But for now I’m [...]
