You Still Have Me

-- One kid done eating breakfast and ready for school. One hasn't even finished getting dressed. It is the parental dichotomy. I've showered, shaved and taken care of other sundry necessities. So why not post something on Queenie's Revenge while I wait? OK, I still need to pack some lunch for myself, but that is a breeze. Anyway, this here little ditty has already been written. It is a letter from Jesus to me, although you could use it as inspiration in a close, committed relationship; something to aspire to, if you will.

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
