I don't think "Manna" would fit.
First, with "manna" instead of "momma" the whole sentence doesn't make
any sense.
        "My manna knows just where we are"
sounds very strange to me (I'm not a native speaker however). But it
does make more sense with "momma" IMHO.

Second, in the first verse it says
        "We are children playing in the sun"
The "momma" could be related to "children".

>As in magic(k)al power/energy,

BTW, manna with two n's is not magical energy. Manna is an edible
substance created by the Jewish and Christian God. The energy you
mean is written with only one n.
