These Are My Children lyrics - Fame

These Are My Children

In times of trouble
When all the world seems, oh, so dark
And I can't 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

These are my children
My saving grace
I see my calling
In every face

These are my children
And I thank God
For choosing me, for choosing me

I wasn't blessed
As other women in this life
To have my own, to be mother and wife

But I was blessed
Beyond where wildest dreams can reach
For I have the privilege
Yes, the privilege 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, I thank God
For choosing me
For choosing me
These are my children
