I gave you hope in your heart
when you were down
and brought you a laugh and smile
when you could only frown
to let you see Angels were around

I made you see a different view
when you were only feeling blue
I walked that extra mile
when you were falling apart
and gave you a reason to believe
that faith would never leave
while I stood here on my own

I poured out to you my soul
what Creator gave to me to show
in words that were meant to heal
when your patience wore thin
and you couldn't be still

I let you see the pain I had within
of all that has fallen on me
at times were hard to get through
and let you see a life I had to live
that many wouldn't understand
or even couldn't do
as I stood here alone

I let you cry while I took your hand
to pick you up when you couldn't stand
I been there and gave you my all
when you only watched me fall
still I reached out to give
so a brighter tomorrow you could see

I let you see a side of me
that would comfort with sympathy
when you had nothing left to hold on to
when your dreams would only fade away
I showed you love would forever be
that would always remain and stay
with kindness of other's in each day
while I lived all the tears that I have shown
