When the nightmare began
When I was left alone in the night
When I was scared, scarred, confused
When the one I had trusted and loved
Stole the perfect, pure innocence
Chasing faith, Looking for something
bigger and better, Longing just to be
made whole again, To find who I am
To have a purpose and a plan
You were there
When all else failed, nothing left to lose
When I turned my face away
Searching high and low for answers
Finding them in all the wrong places
You were there
When my world was caving in
When I didn't know what to do
When I didn't know where to turn
When I was at the end of the line
You were there
You held me close
Your strong arms warm and open
Your face turned to me gently
Your kind voice, soothing the fears away
Your loving embrace, melting the ice around my heart
You were there
You were always there
You are still here
Through every trial
Through every storm
In every situation
You are right here
You are
