Friend, I Am Here

If you need a shoulder to cry on,

If you need an ear to listen,

Vent your woes, for am here to hear

About the cross that you bear.



We all crumble and we all cry

No matter how hard we try;

To stand strong in the face of adversity

Oftentimes make us surrender our dignity.



I was there

I'd been there

When my foes came to crush me by,

An Angel was sent to stay by my side.



There is faith to rely on

There is hope to cling on

Hold on and hang in there

All storms will pass away; our worries clear.



Let not your heart be troubled;

Faint not, in trials, we tend to feeble;

Strength is only measured in a day,

But faith sustains us all along the way.
