Would you..., by faith. . . Subscribe to rss feed for faith. . .

Would you reach your hand out to catch me when i fall? 
Would you stand beside me, there throughout it all? 
Would you help me out when i didn't have a clue? 
Or would you turn your back when it got too much for you? 

Would you give a hug to reassure me i was fine? 
Would you see the way i lived and accept that it was mine?
Would you fight my corner when i had had enough? 
Or would you run away saying helping me was too tough? 

Would you always be there with a shoulder or an ear? 
Would you sit and talk to me to take away my fears? 
Would you know just what was wrong even if i didn't say? 
Or would you look around and say "maybe some other day"? 

Would you be prepared to stay through thick and also thin?
Would you cheer me on, even if i didn't win? 
Would you understand that i couldn't always tell? 
Or would you turn a blind eye, watching silent as i fell? 

Would you be someone i could trust with secrets dark and
light? 
Would you find the strength to stick beside me in the fight?

Would you light a path when i had lost my way to go? 
Or would you walk away, ignoring all you know? 

Would you hold me close and catch each falling tear? 
Would you show me some things aren't always as they appear?
Would you give me sunshine when a storm was coming in? 
Or would you call me stupid, that my feelings were a sin? 

Would you sit in silence just to show me some support? 
Would you hold my hand and show me the things that i had
sought? 
Would you be there till the end, no matter what i put you
through? 
Or would you leave me on my own, not knowing what to do? 

Would you keep me talking if i said i wanted to die? 
Would you see right through me even though i've told a lie?
Would you show me kindness as no other had done before? 
Or would you say i'm nothing and kick me to the floor? 

Would you understand that i was so much different to you? 
Would you accept me for who i was, despite the things i do?
Would you give me some form of hope in a world full of
despair? 
Or would you be long gone at the sight of a single tear? 

Life with me isn't easy, i never said it was, 
But how many are really there to guide me when i'm lost? 
I guess i'm just asking to much of everyone i know, 
Maybe one day they will see and the words will start to
flow...
