In times of Trouble,  When all the world seems, oh, so dark,   And I cant find a way to cope    When deep down inside me   I can no longer feel the spark  When I can see no ray of hope    When I am lost  What makes it all worthwhile  One simple thought to make me smile    Thes are my children  My saving grace  I see my calling  In every face    These are my children   My family tree  And I thank God  For chosing me    I wasnt blessed   As a mother in this life  To have my own, To be a mother and a wife    But I was blessed  Beyond where wildest dreams can reach  For I have the privilage  Yes, the privilage to teach    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    Yes and I thank God  For chosing me   For chosing me   These are my children
