I am the promise of
The prayers of my mothers
And the long line of mothers
Before them
We stand together
As beads on a string
And we'll carry
We'll carry this prayer home

The prayers of my mothers
And the long line of mothers

The prayers of our mothers
And the long line of mothers
Before them
We stand together
As beads on a string

How can we honor the children as the leaders they are
To follow their wisdom?
May the children joyously and lovingly live their gift purpose
Lighting the path for others to come
As these ancient beings
Come from infinite source
With their unique gifts
May we steward their growth
In a way that allows for
Their full expression
May the little ones grow
Unbridled and wild
Their creative hearts a compass
Guiding them always home
In wonder, sky-bound
We are the promise of
The prayers of our mothers
And the long line of mothers
Before them
We stand together
As beads on a string
And we'll carry
We'll carry this prayer home
(Carry it home)

The prayers of our mothers
And the long line of mothers
Before them
(Carry it home)

As beads on a string
And we'll carry
We'll carry this prayer home
Carry it home
Carry it home
Carry it home
Carry it home
Carry it home
Carry it home
Carry it home
