I'm Here to Stay

A thousand miles I cried in this room, A bird in a cage and Heaven only knows I called up Your name in many ways, The greatest hope I have is Your love and grace I heard your cry, O my little child, I knew how much you tried and I'm here to stay I'm here to stay when your world is torn Apart when help is that far, I'm here to stay And you will rise from those sufferings And you will fly from those broken wings I want you to know in spite of these things I want you to know that I'm always here to stay I ponder this Book day after day; Close my eyes to pray that one day I'll be free My faith and trust they're all I Have, keep me going on, Lord keep me strong Keep holding on, O my little child, I knew how much you tried and I'm here to stay I'm here to stay, When your heart crumble, when your hope stumbles, I'm here to stay And you will rise from those sufferings And you will fly from those broken wings I want you to know in spite of these things I want you to know that I'm always here to stay I'm here to stay
