Lyrics:
You came into my life, You just made everything right.
And even though my man has left me behind,
I don't regret a thing for having you.
Thanks for my child,
I'm really thanking you, the man above
Thanks for my child
You brought me so much joy
This bundle of love
Thanks for my child
And though your father, He ran away free.

I can remember after leaving my husband almost 4 years ago and not being able to listen to this song without breaking down in tears. I was so ashamed to become a single mother. Now, I still cry when I hear it but it's for an entirely different reason. We have not heard from him in 3 years and I am SO proud of myself for getting out of that marriage, and for the life I've created for us.

Key word is you had a husband, even if things didn’t work out. This song doesn’t apply to you. This song glorified teen pregnancy- you did more than the others in this comment section by trying to do it the right way -so you had nothing to be ashamed of

@@Proverbspsalms It definitely applies! Who the heck you're supposed to be? The song writers. This song applies if it relates in even the slightest bit. Even more so if it makes her emotional. Married or not she still ended up as did I like teen mothers or unwed mothers. It makes you realize you never know a person until they're outside of the home sometimes unfortunately. This song hits me just like it hits her. I hadn't seen your comment when I left her the praying hands. I wouldn't have even spoke on my own situation elaborating. I was surprised to see a relatable comment. For one because you feel like the ignorant statement you typed. Any body man or woman can become a single parent and not once did she single the lyrics out to reflect it for a reason. Nor did this song glorify teen pregnancy. Things happen and unfortunately that don't mean they too don't deserve support. I was very ashamed as well. Yes we did it different but you can comfort someone a better choice without implying this song glorified a problem in many communities. At the end of they day us married women and plenty unwed mothers both ended up with fatherless children.

I used to sit quietly in the back seat of the car listening to my mother sing this song with tears streaming down her face. I used to always wonder why this song made her so sad; a single mother of 3 by the age of 19. As the youngest and only girl, I am now 41 and can’t listen to this song without shedding my own tears for my mother now understanding all she went through and why this song hit her the way it did. We had a village and I never once went without but the strength it took to raise 3 children alone is a different superpower. And though I don’t have children of my own I’m an active aunt and would have it no other way! To all the single mothers out there, keep going!!!! Never give you, everything will be ok. May God cover you all and your beautiful children.

We had, but I'm sad, and God gave us the time to meet. I play it, and it still stays in my mind, and it will never leave my heart💜 . Thanks For My Child.

Today my son turned 19 years old. Oh weee!! 💕💕Words are small but if you could see my heart on today, you would know that I'm blessed. I'm overjoyed, God knew exactly the master plan, I'm just happy I was there to be aligned with it. I could tell you my whole life experience good, bad and Indifference, with my journey through life with my child. When God has his hand in it, it could never go wrong. Tears of joy rite now!!

As a child hearing this song never thought it would be me relating to it. Sadly it was my reality so young in my life. 42 years old almost now and I’m still grateful hearing this. Three more kids since my eldest and I’m grateful ❤Thank you to my kids fathers and to God Almighty for each and every one of my kids ❤I Love You Lord✝️🙏🏾
