Through life's raging storms

When life’s storms rage
And I have none beside
That’s when you arrive
My friend, who’s always there

Holding my hand
Assuring me it’s ok
Gently pulling me through
You’re there when I need you

That’s when I feel guilty
Not having acknowledged you
Your love for me shines through
Even though I had none for you

When life’s storms rage
And I need your help
You’ve always been there
Your hand around me

And once there’s peace
I forsake you
Yet, you remain
So loyal and true

True to my frailties
And deceitful nature
I am only human
And you’re so divine

Yet through life’s storms
You hold my hand
You’re always there
Friend in deed

You loved me so much
You gave your life for me
I’ve felt your presence
Through life’s raging storms



OurEcho is a FREE SERVICE dedicated to capturing and sharing the individual "bits and pieces" that define our local communities. It might be a bit of interesting local history, an old photograph, a special memory or just a funny story. We are particularly interested in those fascinating and intriguing events/people (both large and small) that we all encounter as part of the human experience. It might be something that happened recently or something passed down to you through your family. Our goal is to provide a forum for local communities to share who they are through their stories and photographs. When you take the time to share these reflection with others, you help us better understand you, the world we live in, and if we are lucky, they help us better understand ourselves.
