So Many Ways to be a Woman

I tried to follow all the rules to be a godly wife
I learned to keep a home and humble heart and submissive mind
I hid the parts of me that fell outside the lines
As I died
I poured through passages of sacred words searching for my name
I wrestled with the holy one all night till the blessing came
I found a face of God I had not met before
She opened up a door

So many ways to be a woman
The table has space to welcome everyone
Come as you are
Reflecting God's own heart
So many ways to be a human
So many ways to be a woman

Scholar, singer, artist, ally and more are witnessed in
The history of our sisters in the faith, so I'll begin
To rest and rejoice in their stories and in mine
And come alive

So many ways to be a woman
The table has space to welcome everyone
Come as you are
Reflecting God's own heart
So many ways to be a human
So many ways to be a woman

Every gift is beautiful
There is need for each and all
One body and many parts
All together reflecting God's own heart
All together reflecting God's own heart

So many ways to be a woman
The table has space to welcome everyone
Come as you are
Reflecting God's own heart
So many ways to be a human
