When Life Falls Apart

On a hilltop far away Stood a man who raised his voice No one heard And he raised his arms And no one saw No one heard what he had to say Except his friends, they made the choice To help, to answer his alarms Others passed him by And a tear rolled from his eye He wanted to be loved by all But even though he felt alone The prayers and comfort of his friends Strengthened him to find his way They helped him gain new strength Within his heart a soft new light He thought his life had come apart But love had lifted him to hope again So he could make a brand new start
