Warrior

The strength of a woman Is not in her tongue Or the length of her hair Or the songs she has sung Control is not found In the clothing she wears Or seduction she offers Or the child that she bears Her honor and glory Comes not from what shows Except her reliance On God that she knows For God gives her power Beyond height and length And makes her much stronger To display her strength It’s there deep within her And flows through her being Revealing a boldness And strength we are seeing For man cannot crush All the things she can do For she is a woman And warrior too
