I'm with you when you feel alone,
On those days you can't hold your own.

I feel your pain as you do,
And I suffer through it with you.

I know it seems too tough for one person to go through,
But remember, those flames once burned me too.

I've been here with you,
even before your birth,
Oh my child,
I wish you could see your worth.

You are so precious, so perfect in my eyes,
You have to stop believing those worldly lies.

I was there the time you cried all night,
I promise every tear was locked up tight.

It's worth every bruise, every scratch, every tear you shed,
With me my dear,
I promise you'll never be dead.

I love you more than you could ever know,
I'm with you wherever you go.

Under my arms you'll forever reside,
I'll give you my protection if you stay by my side.

You're my precious child,
And it hurts me when you cannot smile.

There's no need for fear,
or any fright,
Give it to me,
I'll win your fight.

You see,
your laugh is like music to my ears,
Unfortunately,
I haven't heard it truthfully in years.

Just hang in there my cherished love,
Keep your eyes focused on above.

Soon you'll find the truth,
and I can't wait til you see it,
The changes in your life will be drastic
when your flame is finally lit.

One day,
you'll know of the unfailing love I have for you,
My child,
I'm so excited for the day when you love me too.

One day you'll laugh uncontrollably,
And your joy will flow abundantly.

Oh my love,
you'll live your life to the fullest,
And when it's over,
and you're laid to rest,

Your new life will begin with me,
In a place you cannot yet see.

You have nothing to fear,
no, do not be afraid,
Please,
let down your guard and let me come to your aid.

When you're finally walking with me, there will be not a tear, nor frown on your face.
Oh, if only now you could see the wonderful smile in its place.

So you see, I'm with you when you laugh, when you cry,
when you can't even stand,
I'll walk with you forever my child,
just give me your hand.
