about

We all have moments of doubt, occasional anxieties, sometimes outright despair. Our faith lags and we can forget that help is always there. But when we are receptive, helps comes. Maybe it’s as simple as a friend reaching out, or as profound as reinforcing our conscious contact with the infinite source of love and protection which transcends religion. This song is both prayer and promise—a reminder that help is always there. Always.

lyrics

I Am With You Always - -
+++

You feel you’ve lost your way, beset by demons and misfortune
None know the pain you’ve been through
Refugees and innocents, just tryin’ to cross an ocean
Holdin’ your bag full of blues

Cold night
A sea of loneliness
Lost on the swells and the foam
How many prayers go unheeded
To find that place you'll call home

When you feel you are the wandering stranger
The path grows slimmer than a blade
Remember who you are, there is no real danger
Recall the promise that I made

I am with you always (always)
I’ve been with you every mile
I am in your tears and laughter
For now and ever after
In every gentle breeze, in every stranger's smile
Always know that I am with you always

Tough break
And so you write the hours
Making a cell of your room
But, how on Earth is love gonna flower
When you’re still licking old wounds

And every line you pen is colored with sorrow
For the weight of your load
Remember who you are – today is not tomorrow
You’re not alone on this road

[chorus]

When loneliness haunts you
You’ve sent your last prayer to the sky
Remember I….

And when you feel you are the wandering stranger
The path grows slimmer than a blade
No matter who you are, there is no real danger
Recall the promise that I made

I am in your tears and laughter
For now and ever after
In every gentle breeze, in every stranger's smile
Always know that I am with you always
I'm with you always...
