From Mothers' Arms, We See the World (A Hymn about God as Mother)

Author: Shirley Erena Murray Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 1 hymnal Topics: God Guide First Line: From mothers' arms, we see the world Lyrics: 1 From mothers' arms, we see the world, in mother's arms we look for food, she gives us life, she holds us close, and so may God be understood. 2 This God is tender, loving-kind, the mother bird who guards her nest, this God can rage, with angry tears, the mother bear deprived and stressed. 3 This God is home and warming hearth, does not forget us when we leave, is quick to welcome and embrace, absorbs our pain when we must grieve. 4 God is the seeker of that coin, the child she lost but longs to find, the seamstress God who stitches peace from all the tatters we've designed. 5 More than our minds can comprehend more than our bodies can attest, God is the love that mothers give that every child be held and blessed.
