You Were There



You were there 
When I took the chance
Risked my heart
Ventured past the known
Into the foreign

You were there
When I listened to hope
Awaited that moment
When I knew I could try
Dancing in the rain
Forgetting all the pain
And hearing, instead
The sunshine praise, prayers
For love that kissed my soul
With kindness and joy

You were there
When I waited patiently
For my dreams to come true
For God to come through
For light to pierce the dark
And wisdom to awake
In the soul of this heart
Who knows that real love
Comes from heaven above

You were there
When I asked God for faith
To take that chance, face the challenge
And hear the grace that abounds
When God whispers His blessing
Across a tender spirit

You were there
When I learned how to care
With insight and inspiration
Sincerity and serenity, a sense of
Giving generously, eternally
Gifts from the heart
Who God has painted in hues
Of tenderness and gentleness
Feelings that whisper warmly
With a compassion meant for giving
From the heart, mind and spirit

You were there
I know that you cared
And I would like to thank you
For being a light in the darkness
A whisper of love to my soul
A friend who isn’t afraid
To give without expectation
To live with grace, hope and faith
With a love that knows no limits

Thank you for being there
For you, I’ll always be thankful
