Il testo della These are my children

In times of trouble
When all the world seems, oh, so dark
And i can't find a way to cope

When deep inside me
I can no longer feel the spark
And i can see no ray of hope

When i am lost
What makes it all worthwhile
One simple thought to make me smile

These are my children
My saving grace
I see my calling
In every face

These are my children
My family tree
And i thank god
And i thank god
For choosing me, for choosing me

I wasn't blessed
As other women in this life
To have my own, to be mother and wife

But i was blessed
Beyond where wildest dreams can reach
For i have the privilege
Yes, the privilege to teach

These are my children
My saving grace
I see my calling
In each and every face

These are my children
My family tree
And i thank god
And i thank god

Yes, i thank god
For choosing me
For choosing me
These are my children
