STAND BY ME

by Dr. Rick McGrath, Ph.D.
(Modesto, CA)

Sometimes life has it difficulties
When the odds seem impossible
Many times there are casualties
For me, all things are possible!

Problems mount unbelievable
But who will stand by me?
Who will be accountable?
I will not falter you see.

Can I count on you to be there?
Or do I have to face this alone?
Will you be honest and fair?
Or will I be the one you disown?

I will stand and give you my best
I want to know I can count on you
Your love for me I won’t contest
I will give you my love and life too.

In the end I will make my stand
With or without you I’ll conquer
I will draw my line in the sand
In me you’ll find no surrender.
