You Are Who You Are

Sometimes it seems like you are on a rocky road,

and I know you have a story to be told.

Nevertheless, you are who you are;

you are great, shining like a star.

Willing to reach out and give a hand;

to help someone’s feet get pulled out of the sand.

You are like a mother who is caring for her own;

your love is always being shown.

You are who you are.

You are you caring so much;

wishing others will do just such.

Because you are who you are;

you are always near, never too far.

Always there to lend a hand to others

during the good times and times of sorrow

Thank you for being who you are:

God’s bright, shining star.
