In my youth I came to you For love and warmth When I needed words That were strong and wise I came to you Now here I stand Facing your door one more time Oh how I need your strength To walk on through There’s the couch Where you watched TV The kitchen’s still in place Where you used to cook The rocker’s still on the deck Where you’d just sit and look The pillow still has your imprint Where you used to sleep There’s your clothes all lined up Waiting for you to give them grace Look at the pictures lining the hall With your smiling face I remember how I came to you With news of my wife and kids And how you used to smile Now I’m walking in this place That has your feel But not your smiling face Oh dear God How I need your strength Who will I come to now Now that you are gone I don’t know how But wherever you are I’ll still come to you In my time of need Oh dear God, I’ll never forget How when I needed strength and wisdom You were always there And how I came to you
