Your Child's Prayer

Thank you
Because you have done so much for me
YOu have brought me so far
But now it's time for me to embark on my own journey

Life will offer me its all
But it's up to me whether I rise or fall
No matter how far away we shall be
I will always remember what you taught me

Life will offer me its twists and turns
Along with its dangerous curves
But you taught me that if I have God in my life
Everything will be alright

Yes, there will be heartbreaks
Madness and sadness
Love and tenderness

But all I now want from you both is to just be there
Be there when I need to know that someone still cares
Be there to give me advice
So that I'll know not to make that same mistake twice

I don't expect you to be there everytime I fall
Because you have already done your best and given me your all
I know that I maybe your baby
But I am now growing up and have to depend on me

I know it maybe hard to see me go
But as I leave, I just want you to know
That I will take your teachings with me wherever I may go
And that my love for you will continue to grow

Thank you for letting me know that you care
And thank you for hearing your child's prayer
