Be not afraid young mother,
And do not feel so all alone.
There are others who've traveled
The road you now walk.
We'll gladly help guide you along.
Be not disheartened young mother,
For days of unknown full of dread.
For though there be trials
And challenges,
There also lies joy up ahead.
Be not discouraged young mother.
We know of your loss, pain, and fear.
But behind that dark cloud
Looms a rainbow of love
That will shine for you year after year.
Be touched by your joy young mother.
For that your beautiful baby, your own!
And no matter the challenges
That may lie ahead,
Neither you nor your child are alone.
