Lyrics

I walked with him the other day He walked along his usual way I felt the fear an unknown face He took my hand and I felt safe I blew the chance we lost the game He said that’s life no sadness no shame I cried that night I felt alone He dried my tears, a pain he has known Then he said I’ll take your hand when you need a friend I’m there for you till the very end When you’re alone and I’m away Just look for strength in the words I say He lay in bed a man alone The time had come he’s on his way home Accepting fate with style and grace In heaven now his Father’s place He’s close to me I feel him there He lives in peace no burden to bear He’s there for me in many ways In lessons learned from bygone days Those were days He’d take my hand father and a friend He’d be with me till the very end I was alone while he was away But I’d find strength in the words he’d say Walked with my child the other day We walked along our usual way An unknown fear upon his face I took his hand so he’d feel safe My father’s hand was there for me And this my child our fate will be My father’s hand was steady and true And this my child I’ll be for you Then I said I’ll take your hand when you need a friend I’m there for you till the very end When your alone and I’m away Just look for strength in the words I say Just look for strength in the words I say Just look for strength in the words I say
