Woman to woman

A journey to healing

A celebration of our lives

Through the inner love of revealing

 

Through an inspirational vibe

Sprang a conversation for giving

Amongst eight recovering souls

Comes a pathway for wholesome living

 

Secrets women don’t share showed

The founders there’s a need

That sobriety should extend

And expand to greater deeds

 

Building relationships for recovering

Women created a special part

Thus allowing woman to woman

To hear the language of the heart

 

Man can tell you how to love them

But a woman’s love is a reversal

Learning to love herself first, discovers

Life: this is not a dress rehearsal

 

We have come to expect a miracle

Every time we come together

We discover deeper strengths that pull

Us higher, to make us better

 

This sisterhood empowers us

Breaks down the wall of fear

Separted, we are helpless

But together we can share

 

We’ve learned to trust the journey

As sisters in spirit we can do

Together, what things alone

We wouldn’t be able to

 

Sharing the sunlight of god’s spirit

Has filled our lives with hope

Created in us desires to live

Beyond our normal scope

 

Spirituality: an inside job

To womanhood, helped us reveal

That our lives are threefold parts

That we need all of them to heal.

That change the turning point

To life or death to our growth

That we must continue focusing

To achieve our own self-worth

 

That we are worthy of our gift

Of sober, happy lives

Learning letting go absolutely

That great things can materialize

 

That the reward of recovery

Surpass our wildest dreams

We recover families, jobs

But most of all, our self-esteem

 

Woman to woman teaches us

To be happy joyous and free

Through the stories of other woman

I’ve gained the courage to be me

 

Up from the seeds that were planted

Came the roots of change, in life

Thus our blessed woman to woman

Prepares this sacred sacrifice

 

Through a spiritual awakening

We are transformed on the inside

Through the steps to honor

And dignity, we are blessed on every side

 

Thought our beloved Eugertha

No longer stands in our midst

Her spirit soars before us

Traveling our journey to the promises

 

That we can do together

What we cannot do alone

In the spirity of sobriety

Woman to woman shall live on

 

In the spirit of sobriety,

Woman to woman shall live on
