Given What You Need
(Written for My Mom)
INTRO
Given what you need
Given what you need
Given what you need
VERSE 1
When I was a kid my Mom
Kept a roof over our head
Worked three jobs to keep us safe
Gave us food and a bed
Know she prayed we'd be OK
Loved us every day.
When my Dad left and walked away
I'm so grateful that she stayed.
VERSE 2
I know that what you sow
Is what your gonna reap
Mom walked the walk everyday
That's how she would teach.
Loved passed on from her Mom and Dad
Came through her everyday
It touched us like an angel
It still touches me today
CHORUS
A home is the same as heart
Can't see what's going on inside
The love pain and struggle
Can't be seen from the outside
It can be a place of many wounds selfishness and greed
Or it can be a place we say our prayers
And are given what we need
VERSE 3
Thank you a Mom for your endless love
Take it with me every day.
Thank you for your forgiveness
For the times I went astray.
I thank God for your harmony
And the music in your heart
Miss your love and laughter
Now that were apart.
CHORUS
A home is the same as heart
Can't see what's going on inside
The love pain and struggle
Can't be seen from the outside
It can be a place of many wounds selfishness and greed
Or it can be a place we say our prayers
And are given what we need
TAG
