Call On Me

Call on me when your boat is sinking,
you’re blown off course, or you’ve run aground,
call on me when you’re lost in the wilderness,
call on me when you want to be found.

Call on me when the tough decisions
you have to make are too hard to bear,
when you have doubts, when the price seems too high to pay,
call on me, and I will be there.

Call on me when the future’s daunting,
when you’ve lost hope, when the darkness won’t end,
when you’re in pain, when you grieve, when you’re scared and alone,
call on me when you need a friend.

Thanks, Jan. My word of the year is "friends" (I don't do resolutions, just word of the year, because you can't fail at that).

If I was musical at all, I would be singing this one. It is melodically beautiful.
