A Mother's Saving Grace

Waves of the drowning waters are washing over me again,
my soul glides blissfully beneath them,
into the cool, deep, and black-

Oh heaven and light!
Redemption has not lost me,
the new waters of life will bathe my soul in their glorious
light!
I will be reborn in their image-
a Mother's image of beauty, wisdom and grace,
I will be for them what I could not be for myself,
a child of faith,
I will make peace with my turmoil
shedding it forever and embrace my beautiful destiny.

I reveal a true child of God! Oh Lord, hear my prayer!
