YOU ARE EVERYTHING TO ME

I don't know why You love me.

I just know that You do.

And that's enough for me.

I am never really alone.

For You are always here with me.

In the good and in the bad.

When all have deserted me,

You alone remain.

When the bitter tears fall,

You are here to wipe them all away.

You hold me till the pain passes.

When I feel empty and hollow,

You give me Your unfailing and unconditional love.

When I come undone,

You hold me together.

When my strength fails me,

You are the One who holds me upright.

When I brood,

You reassure me.

When I doubt,

Again, You reassure me.

What more is there?

I cannot ask for anything more.

Oh Lord,

You are everything to me.
