When times get rough and tough to bear
It’s nice to know that you are there
I always know that you will care
And hear the sadness that I share
You know exactly how I feel
The things you do for me are real
You turn my sadness into joy
You’ve done it since I was a boy
All the mistakes that I’ve had
Were made out to be “not so bad”
Your forgiveness is what got me through
Without your love, what would I do?
The things you do for me are great
I really do appreciate
The blessings you send down for me
Have made me be all I can be
You’re there when times are smooth or rough
I really can’t thank you enough
I know that if I need it Lord
You’ll send the love you can afford
I know that you’re inside of me
And even though I cannot see
When life decides to take its toll
You’re here in Heart and Mind and Soul
