A letter from God to me:
You Still Have Me
When your friends turn their backs
Just when you need them most
And nobody seems to hear
The day is dark as it is long
And there’s no light for you to see
Remember this: All hope’s not lost
Because you still have me
When your mountain seems too tall
For you to overcome
And too dangerous to climb
The fight you might have to wage
Just makes you want to flee
Remember this: All hope’s not lost
Because you still have me
You still have me
Yes, you still have me
You still have me
And with you I’ll always be
I am your rock to stand upon
I hold you when you cry
I lift you up when you are down
You have hope with me
You must believe
Take my hand; you’ll see
When they can’t tell right from wrong
You don’t know how to be strong
Or just looking for the way
You’re sure you can’t do my work
Ax, hammer, nail fail to set you free
Remember this: All hope’s not lost
Because you still have me
You still have me
Yes, you still have me
You still have me
And with you I’ll always be
