Toni Childs Sacrifice
I could be under a tree looking for an answer today
But though I cannot find some peace of mind
I know that I will be fine as I find my way to motherhood
Motherhood the question of a life
To be the window here into the world, the world
The earth it requires, that mother sit and mother sow the wheat
And as the grain comes down, mother surely feast
It's the story of the land
It's the heart, it's the soul of the man
It's the life, it's the God, it's the need
It's the life, it's the seed that we seek
But though I cannot find some peace of mind
I know that I will be fine as I find my way
It requires, that mother sit and mother sow the wheat
And as the grain comes down, mother surely feast
It's the story of the land
It's the heart, it's the soul of the man
It's the life, it's the God, it's the need
It's the life, it's the seed that we seek
How can I turn it away?
How can I say no to what I am?
The woman, the door, the woman
Now I sit with my child living out my life
I sit with my child, the sacrifice, the sacrifice
