You move through my thoughts like a ghost,

I can barely see or hear you, but I know you're there.

Whispering words that gently touch my soul,

Letting me know that you still care.

Along the path I walk, you guide me true,

Keeping me straight when I wander astray.

Though at times you seem to struggle to find me,

It was I who got lost along the way.

If ever I needed you, you were always so close,

A friend like you, there was none other,

And I will never seek to ever replace you,

You've been there for me, closer than a brother.

You speak to me now, so plainly, so clearly,

So firmly, I can do no more but simply obey.

You've shown me how things can be so much better

If only I choose to follow your way.

Here I am Lord, I hide from you never again.

I understand now where you need me to be,

And now I reach for you with arms wide open,

I'm ready to take in all that you want me to see.
