Here's To My Sisters

Today as I looked out the window, I opened it wide.

I lifted my hands up to Jesus and I cried!

I cried, yes I cried!!!

I cried for the sisters who are bounded and the sisters who are free.

I cried for the little girl that still lives inside of me.

I cried for the sisters who are happy and the sisters who are sad.

I cried for the sisters who are angry and the sisters who are mad.

I cried, yes I cried!!!

I cried for the sisters who could and the sisters who could not.

I cried for the sisters who have made it to the top!

I cried for the sisters whose dreams seem so far away but will not quit.

I cried for the sisters whose journey is not finished yet.

I cried, yes I cried!!!

Lord help my sisters, strengthen my sisters and have mercy too.

Lord keep them and sustain them in all that they do.

So, here’s to the sisters whom I love and adore! Here’s to the sisters that want more!

For we are family and I cried for all my sisters in me
