Moma

We'd sit by the water, just casting a line

Quiet and peaceful, sweet mother-daughter time

You taught me patience while waiting right there

With the sun on your face and the breeze in your hair

I look back on those days and I finally see

How you anchored the boat, and you anchored me

Oh, Moma, I love the mother you are

My beautiful light, my steady bright star

You’re patient and caring, so strong and so true

I just want to say how much I appreciate you

Lord knows I am blessed by the love that you share

The mother you are is an answered prayer

When the trials of life would start weighing me down

You planted your knees on the solidest ground

A true prayer warrior, fighting unseen

Lifting my name to the Heavenly King

You bowed down your head so that I could stand tall

Your grace and your faith, Moma, carried it all

Oh, Moma, I love the mother you are

My beautiful light, my steady bright star

You’re patient and caring, so strong and so true

I just want to say how much I appreciate you

Lord knows I am blessed by the love that you share

The mother you are is an answered prayer

For every tear that you wiped from my face

For filling my life with your tender embrace

I might not have said it as much as I should

But your spirit is gentle, your heart is so good

I thank God in heaven for giving me you

Oh, Moma, I love the mother you are

My beautiful light, my steady bright star

You’re patient and caring, so strong and so true

I just want to say how much I appreciate you

Lord knows I am blessed by the love that you share

The mother you are is an answered prayer

Yes, Moma, I love you, and I appreciate you
