Be With Me

I've known this girl all of my life,

and I first told her, when I was five,

how I felt about her.

She didn't seem to feel the same for me then,

but even though she didn't...she said



Be with me.

Be my friend,

and we'll walk the world together

holding hands.

Be with me.



I waited for more than ten years

after that day,

and then I asked her again

just to see what she'd say...



She said be with me.

Just be my friend,

and we'll walk through life together

until the end.

I know you love me like that,

but I don't feel the same about you

because what I need from you

is a friend.

Please just be with me.



Then one day I asked her about Jesus,

and she said "He's the best friend you'll ever have."

A few months passed by,

and Christmas had come and gone.

I was depressed cause I was alone.

Then Jesus reached out his hand

as I remembered what she said,

and he said...



Please be with me.

Just be my friend,

and we'll walk through heaven together

holding hands.

When you fall I'll lift you up,

and knock off all the dust

that Satan puts on you...

I'll even clean it with my blood,

and you will be clean.

If you just be with me.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

I want to thank all of my friends, especially my Friends Jesus Christ, Kami, and Jerry.  Thank you all so much for showing me the truth...even when I wouldn't listen...
