You Were Always There

There are times in life
When things weigh so heavy on my mind 
And happiness is emotion that’s truly hard to find 
At time’s I wanted give up 
And drink from the cup 
Of lies 
That’s when I hang my head to cry
Burdened with sadness and worry I sighed 
Feeling real gloomy and perplexed
I ask the questions why?
I’ve been away from Jesus too long 
And that I can’t deny
Its only when I open my heart 
Then feel you guide 
Helping through the rough times in the world 
Lord I’m glad you could confide
