More about Mandi Miller:
I am a wife and a mother of six children, and I have a love for music and harmony. It has brought me much joy, peace, and comfort throughout my life. My hope is that my music will be sung and enjoyed in much the same way!

Song background:

This song celebrates the continuing bond between parents and their adult children.

As I wrote previous versions of the lyrics, I thought it would be really neat to have this be almost a conversation. I was reminded of "A Child's Prayer" and thought it would be a neat challenge to create something like that with the theme I had chosen. I decided to have the parent's part be a prayer and the child's part being a response of comfort and hope.

The MP3 is not complete. It just shows how it sounds together up until the 2nd ending. After feedback and any changes I will put something better up, but this gives an idea.

Lyrics: Heavenly Father,
Please keep my kids safe.
Help them be happy,
and hold onto faith.
Help them to reach
Their most treasured dreams.
Help them to feel
Thy love through me.

Dear Mother, Remember
That you raised us strong.
We know we can do it,
When you cheer us on.
At times we may stumble,
But we're not alone,
We're bound to our Savior.
He'll lead us home.
