I've watched you stumble through the valley I've seen every tear you've shed Though it seems that no one cares what you are facing I am here and I will be your friend When every silver cloud is raining And it seems all hope is lost The sea that bars your way is raging I'll lay My body down to help you walk across I know it's not fair how you're hurting I hope My love will bring you peace Please believe that I am listening I know how lonely you must feel I am here and you are not alone Even wounded spirits heal Nothing dries the tears of sorrow That run so freely now unbidden down your face And others steal the joy you've borrowed But even hammered nails can't hold back My embrace Remember I am right beside you I hope My peace will give you strength Don't turn away from this - My head, My hands, My feet I want you to see that this is the real Me Rejected and beaten, abandoned and scarred I've been exactly where you are
