Lyrics
'You Are On Our Side'
Thank you for saving me
I had nowhere else to go
No one understood me
Hold me where I need to be
In the grace of your good hands
Always be near me
I was the one in need
The one without a home
Tired and bleeding
This is a long road to peace
And this is a long road to freedom
They think I'm so dumb for I can't speak
But you are here for me...
Time is a lonely place
When you're waiting for a love
The eyes who truly see you
We are the ones who wait
For an angel in the storm
The one who will need you
The best friends we long to be
Full of loyalty and pride
Just let us show you
So we will thank you with the love in our eyes
For you bring the light, hope and care into our lives
When all is never said and the work is never done
You are on our side...
