These Are the Women We Come From Lyrics by Sisters (group)

Songs of Friendship, Joy and Encouragement for Women

0

They are faces in photographs
Heads all held high
Not afraid to look life in the eye
They were women with backbone
Keepers of the flame
With a spirit
Even hard times couldn't tame
And I know this same blood is in me
And I meet their gaze one by one
Eyes strong and clear
I still feel them near
(These are, oh, yeah)
These are the women I come from
(Faith that sustained)
The faith that sustained them
Is bred in my bones
I know what I'm made of
And where I belong
'Cause these are the women I come from
What did life bring them
What pain did they know
What stories the pictures didn't show
They were lovers of babies
And lovers of God
With lessons and laughter
In their songs
Did they dream better dreams
For their children
As they prayed silent prayers
In the night
"Lord, make their way clear
And always be near"
These are the women I come from
(Oh, yeah, we come from)
(Faith that sustained)
The faith that sustained them
Is bred in my bones
I know what I'm made of
And where I belong
'Cause these are the women I come from
Now I have my own child beside me
And we gaze at them all one by one
Her eyes strong and clear
I draw her near, and say
These are the women you come from
(Oh, yeah)
Oh, the faith that sustained them
Is bred in your bones
Oh, you know what you're made of
And where you belong
'Cause these are the women
Survivors each one
They weren't always easy
But loving and strong
God's life force inside them
Is still going on
'Cause these are the women we came from
Oh, yeah
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah...
These are the women, yeah
Women we come from...
