And you pray
for help, one day at a time, sweet Jesus, as the mantra goes.

And you pray
for help, one day at a time, sweet Jesus, as the mantra goes.
She is the quickening, the leap of faith;
she the tabernacle, mother of the world.
Because they left, they could arrive.
Because they searched, they could find.
Because they wandered, they discovered.
What did she know of birthing?
Despite dear Joseph’s steadfast love
she’d need to do this alone.
