"Thank You My Friend For Being There"
When I'm weak and full of fright,
You ask God to make it flee,
You ask him to make my day bright,
You always hear my plea.
When I'm so scared of the next day,
You lift my name in prayer,
You help me make the fright go away,
You are there because you care.
It's the way you understand,
It's the way you're always there,
It's the way you hold my hand,
It's the way you always care.
It's how your words speak to me,
It's how you help me so,
It's how you make me see,
The bad days will go.
It's how you touch my life,
And take away my pain,
You help me with my strife,
You tell me what I have to gain.
It's how you lift me when I'm down,
It's how you carry me,
It's how you make me smile when I frown,
It's how you help me be the best I can be.
It's how you know what to always say,
It's how you comfort me so,
It's how you make my day,
I hope that you never will go.
It's how you know exactly what to do,
To help brighten my day,
It's how you help me through,
It's how you make the clouds go away.
It's how you constantly care,
You never leave my side,
You know about what I have to bear,
And in you, you allow me to confide.
It's how when you hug me,
I know it will be all right,
It's how you help me see,
That soon the days will be bright.
It's how a simple touch,
Can comfort deep within,
It's how you know when I have too much,
It's how you are such a friend.
It's how you make the rain leave,
And you help me take a stand,
It's how you are a blessing God has let me receive,
It's how you comfort my shaky hand.
It's how you are "always on call,"
No matter what time of day or night,
You allow me to tell you all,
You help me see God has plans in sight.
Thank you my friend, for being there,
Thank you for not being a judge,
Thank you for always being the one who cared,
Thank you for helping me not hold a grudge.
Thank you for all the times you prayed,
Thank you for the hugs that comforted me,
Thank you for being the one who stayed,
Thank you for bringing out the best in me.
Thank you for never leaving my side,
Thank you for being the one who could understand,
Thank you for letting me confide,
Thank you for helping steady my shaking hand.
Thank you for being God's living vessel in my life,
Thank you for helping me see the day could be bright,
Thank you for helping me out with my strife,
Thanks for helping the clouds get out of site.
Once again thank you for caring,
And always such a blessing to my life,
Thank you for all the times you brought sharing,
Thank you for being such a constant in my life.
