From the moment I first held you in my arms
I prayed that God would keep you safe
Guide you through life where every rose has it's thorns
I knew through all these adversities you'll stay brave
I still see my little girl play dress up
Running around and playing on a swing
Elegantly drinking out of a tea cup
Learning to tie her own shoe string
The timeless rhythms of daily life
Could throw today's girls in a moral abyss
Would this make you the perfect wife
It's obvious that something would be amiss
Society has inflicted damage because it's highly sexualized
By giving you popular role models as sexual objects
Doesn't that contaminate or pollute you, or aren't you dehumanized
It doesn't have to be so complex...
Life is simply a choice, you chose:
Self-worth, goodness and self-discipline
Chose to be trustworthy, fearless and humble
Treats people with dignity and honesty
You stayed authentic and true to yourself
You chose wisdom above society's beauty
You walk in peace and are centered in True love
You fear, respect, honor and love
With all your heart, mind and soul, the Lord
You know that you are the radiant woman
He destined you to be, you are my girl
