The One Who Helped Me






As the days turn into months
And the months turn into years,
I think of all my days of smiles
And the days of my many tears.

Then, I think of the one who helped me,
Pulled me up when I was down,
Helped to dry my falling tears,
Helped me smile instead of frown.

Whenever I was happy,
I knew He smiled with me.
And, I know He grieved each time
A falling tear He'd see.

The one who helped me through it all
Is Jesus, God's beloved Son.
I know that He'll be here with me
Till my life on earth is done.

He will gently take me by the hand,
I won't make that journey alone.
He will lead me through that Golden Gate
Where loved ones will welcome me home.
