Each day you must face life's struggles 
and endure your body's pain,
not knowing each moment
if the batttle you will lose or gain.
Your verse from the Bible
says this world He has overcome.
He is the only One
your strength and hope come from.
All I can do is love you
and be your mother and your friend.
But I cannot make your suffering less
or bring it to an end.
If I could take it all away by taking it
on myself or giving my life, I'd do it.
But only God can choose to end your pain
or to help you through it.

So much you have accomplished already
and this graduation is just a start.
Many more triumphs are ahead
but don't let anything change your heart.
Don't let your will be crushed
by what others may do or say.
Just know that within you lies
the courage to face each new day.
No matter what life may bring,
this promise I make you now.
Together with God's help,
we will endure and conquer somehow.
I will never give up on you
and you can be sure I'll never doubt you.
I can't even imagine how empty
my life would be without you.
You say I am you hero
and a cape to me you'd like to give.
But the truth is you are my hero
and you will be as long as I live.
