Stood By Me

You silently stood by me in times of need You were there when I went on my path To self destruct when death seemed bliss Where loneliness was my catchphrase You were there when I needed a miracle With the sound of my son’s first cry As it cut through the thin night air of silence And death was no longer my wish You stood by me still when I lost all I loved When I felt bereft lost and without hope When the sun changed to dust and the Sound of bird song sounded hopeless You stood by me when I denounced you When I gave a soul for the hope that love Will never be a part of the life I chose to life When I felt that my life would be for nothing And now today my inner wish has been answered At last I know that I will find the peace I so need Will were I longed to go and be save Into your arms which will hold me close
