A DEAR FRIEND

 

ALL ALONE AND SO COLD,

WANDERING IN THE BLACK, NO LIGHT.

DRENCHED AND SO SCARED,

THERE WAS NO WAY, NOTHING IN SIGHT.

 

YOUR BEAUTIFUL VOICE DROWNED MY FEARS AWAY.

THERE SEEMED MORE HOPE, LESS DISMAY.

NOT AN EASY PROMISE IT WAS:

YOU BELONGED TO ME; YOU’LL NEVER LET ME DRIFT AWAY.

 

WHEN I WAS FRAIL, I WAS HELPLESS,

FADING FROM REALITY, ENGULFED BY DARKNESS,

AND WHEN MY LIFE BECAME AN AWFUL MESS,

YOU HELPED ME OUT; YOU SAID YES.

 

I CAN SEE YOUR RADIATING LIGHT

SHINING FROM THE CORE OF YOUR HEART.

NO WONDER IT IS SO WARM AND BRIGHT,

IT IS ALMIGHTY’S ART.
