When I was down
You sheltered me
When you were hurt
I stood by thee

You keep me safe
You are my shield
You are my armor
Against the pain

Stronger than steel
Softer than down
You protect me
And give me strength

I will be there
Right next to you
Whenever you need
Whenever you call

I will shelter you
And give you strength
I will be your shield
I will be your armor

From the worlds pain
I will shelter you
Lift you up
And give you strength

Together we shall stand
You as my shield
And I as thine
Together we shall live

To be nobody but yourself--In a world which is doing its best, night and day, to make you like everybody else--Means to fight the hardest battle any human being can fight, and never stop fighting.
