Friends in me confiding
The struggles that they bear
Difficulties facing
Hidden that they share
Spouse of suffering
Illness without hope
Child with depression
So difficult to cope
Elderly need caring
Or children cannot bear
Suicidal thoughts
Day of deep despair
Listening intently
Compassion of the heart
Tears of sorrow well
No words to even start
These common words arise
To them my offer pleads
Will you please let me know?
Anything you need
Crosses of the journey
Ones which we all bear
I know the One they need
Please answer may I share
Oh Lord give me the strength
To share the answer true
The wisdom of eternal
The gift of love of You
