Even though the pain is great

And you fear the new day,

There's still hope; there's a way.

Don't give up!

When you feel you can't go on -

Reach out, I am here.

You are not alone,

Don't give up!

Confusion seems to be rampant,

The world seems upside down

On your face I see a frown.

Don't give up!

Don't give up, for I won't

Let you bear this alone.

I'll always be at your side

Or holding you in my arms.

Even though you may feel

I've turned away,

I would never leave my child

To carry this burden alone.

For strength - lean on me.

For hope - look to me.

Forever - you will live with me,

Don't give up!

Peace be with you my child

And in my grace you'll abide.

You will never be alone.

I'll always be at your side.
