[Verse 1]
She weighs every word before it leaves her lips,
A mind that balances scales on the tips,
She dreams for the many, she serves with her hands,
Her heart holds a warmth that the whole circle understands,
But the home she was shaped in had structure like stone,
And she learned very young how to carry it alone,

[PreChorus]
She kept her deepest love folded out of sight,
A hidden devotion burning fierce and bright,

[Chorus]
She is seen, every prayer spoken over her name,
The gold that gets tested still comes out the same,
Every door that fell closed left a window of grace,
She is loved, she is held, she is known in this place,

[Verse 2]
She chases the truth past the comfortable edge,
She stands on conviction and sharpens the pledge,
Her passion moves bold with a ceremonial fire,
She lifts up the causes that set her soul higher,
But the gap between longing and what she could say
Grew wide as two people who both looked away,

[PreChorus]
Still the loyalty she carries has never grown thin,
It runs like a deep current, woven within,

[Chorus]
She is not the unfinished draft left on the floor,
She is the steady hand reaching back at the door,
Every fracture between us can still be made whole,
She is worthy of every love poured from my soul,

[Verse 3]
She offers her care in the smallest of acts,
In the order she tends to, the practical facts,
She measures her worth by the good she can do,
She gives until giving is all that she knew,
But the girl who perfects every task on the list
Still aches for the gentle things she might have missed,

[PreChorus]
Her heart holds a vision of what could be mended,
A table still set for the two of us intended,

[Chorus]
She carries a beauty that cannot be dimmed,
The truest of vessels that's never been emptied or skimmed,
Let the full moon tonight lay its mercy on her,
She is found, she is cherished, she was always my prayer,

[Verse 4]
I folded my sorry in silence too long,
I handed my daughter the weight of what's wrong,
The words that I couldn't release found no home,
And I left the one person I loved most alone,
But the bond that a mother and daughter have known
Is not broken by distance, it lives in the bone,

[PreChorus]
I am here with my hands open, kneeling in truth,
Asking grace to restore what was precious in youth,

[Chorus]
She is more than the silence between where we stand,
She is mine and I'm hers and I'm reaching my hand,
Every prayer that I've whispered has carried her face,
She is loved, she is covered, she is held by God's grace,

[Bridge]
I leave the letter unsealed on the table this time,
No erasing the ink, no retreating the line,
What I failed her in seasons I offer her now,
A heart full of sorrow that's learning to bow,

[Outro]
The full moon is rising and laying things bare,
She is forever my daughter, forever my prayer,
Two hearts finding their way back to warmth and repair,
She is found in my love, she has always been there,
