You were there when the snowflakes shrouded the trees,
you were there when I begged God on my knees.
You believed in the best in me,
and you saw my sincere humanity.
I see you in the formation of drifting clouds,
I think of you in days when I am down.
You felt me in your prophesy,
you saw me in my frailty.
I want to thank you for trusting my deity,
I thank you for loving me in my poverty.
You never saw my poor inability,
You have always accepted my naivety.
I want to walk beside that river with you,
I will love, uphold the true person you are.
You are my bright. shining star.
You have called to me from afar.
Just like shadows that have yielded the scorching sun,
I’d like to be there for you, that special one
Keeping, upholding from what may come
I’ll travel the waters to be one.
God has made a way out of my desperate state,
I can’t believe how he has renewed my fate.
You are everything I could want,
my love, my friend, my confidante.
