Independence Cry
April 19, 2010
I am a young child no more,
Though my face is tender and young.
But not as I was before,
When words ran unhindered from tongue.
I do not act without thought,
Though I do work swift.
I do as I was taught,
And neglect not my gift.
I remember my lessons,
And seek guidance in prayer.
I thank God for His blessin's,
My parents' patience and care.
Even I, full of youth still,
Ready to be trusted and grown,
A woman who knows God's will,
Am able to stand on faith my own.
But hold me back no longer,
Look, a child you will not find.
Yes, love has made me stronger,
In Spirit, body, and mind.
