In the time that I have known you
You’ve come to mean a lot to me
And though I’ve never told you
I want you now to see
It’s time that you should know
That more times than I could name
Your strength has been an inspiration
To see me through my pain
I know I couldn’t number
The times you’ve prayed for me
But I know that words reach heaven
When Zelma’s on her knees
I see that now you’re standing
On the edge of the unknown
And though I can’t go with you
No matter where on earth I roam
Your witness will go with me
It will never fade away
I’ll be a better person tomorrow
For knowing you today
