Everyone needs a friend to hold

This week was much more cheery than I thought it would be. =) Feel like I'm running on supernatural fuel from above. Colleagues gave me Corrinne May's Beautiful Seed CD to me for birthday, and listening to the album has been so therapeutic.

This song, On the Side of Me, esp spoke to me. This is especially dedicated to my dear and wonderful friends who were praying for me and stuck with me through my darkest valley. And most of all, dedicated to my dear Lord Jesus Christ who chose to love me in spite of my fears and inadequacies, and always believes in me. Thank You Lord for never giving up on me.

On the Side of Me” - Corrinne May

I’m not the easiest person to love
I’m often the one who lets things go unresolved

Yet you choose to be
on the side of me
on the side of me
Yet you choose to be on the side of me
on the side of me

I’m not too proud of some things
I’ve done in my life
The skeletons in my closet
Are too big for me to hide

Yet you choose to be
on the side of me
on the side of me
Blessed Charity
You’re on the side of me
on the side of me

Everyone needs a friend to hold
when it’s cold outside
and there’s no place to go
Everyone needs a friend to hold
all alone I cried
there was no place to go
I remember when nobody cared
but you

I’m not the easiest person to love
But you, you’ve opened your heart to show me what I’m worth

‘Cause you choose to be
on the side of me
on the side of me
What a mystery
You’re on the side of me
on the side of me

Everyone needs a friend to hold
when it’s cold outside
and there’s no place to go
Everyone needs a friend to hold
all alone I cried
there was no place to go

I remember when nobody cared
Nobody cared
But you…

Yeah you choose to be
on the side of me
on the side of me
