When I\u2019m feeling lost and broken and nothing is going right
\nI turn my eyes upon you and find comfort in your light
\nYou\u2019ve always been there for me when I\u2019ve needed you more
\nYou are my greatest asset when the wolf is at my door
\nI try to be there for you, but you\u2019re stronger than I\u2019ll be
\nI look to you for guidance, more than you\u2019ll ever need me
\nI\u2019m grateful that I know you, I am humbled that you care
\nYou will always be my hero, even when you are not there
\nSometimes, I may not get it and simply don\u2019t understand
\nWhy you will bend over backwards to lend me a helping hand
\nYet, I still try not to question for I know we all need aid
\nThe many ways you\u2019ve shown me are debts that can\u2019t be repaid
\nThe sun is always brighter, the sky\u2019s a deeper shade of blue
\nWhen life receives a blessing, such as I have found in you
\nFor when it all seems hopeless and the future\u2019s dark and gray
\nI know you are there to lead me, for you will show me the way<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
