“To be a mother – what a task!
I need God’s help – His help I ask.
No break, or pause, a constant role:
I fail, I fall, for help I call!”
Sometimes there is no partnering Dad;
but others have a willing lad
who like themselves is loving, weak –
her help to help him serve he’ll seek.
And so on her two roles are laid –
to be a Mum, support the Dad,
and build a strong close family
to nurture children happily.
