Always with me

Always With Me

From the far reaches of heaven

To the very depths of the earth;

You are with me there,

You wrap me in your loving care.


If I rise on the wings of the day,

Or travel to some far off place;

You are there with me,

You open my eyes that I can see.


Even in my grief, in my darkness,

When I’m weak unable to speak;

From me you do not hide,

Your mighty hand is there to guide.


When it feels like my world spinning,

And the cold grave is pulling me in;

I know you are there,

And will hear my cries of despair.


Where I journey, both far and near,

I know I will never travel alone;

For you are always here,

In my heart making my path clear.
