Come walk with me upon this road, I'll journey on with you
I promise that I will not leave, and that we'll make it through
You're headed down the wrong path, so come and walk with me
Let's try to go a different way and with you I will be.

You made a wrong turn somewhere and you tried to make it right
But by yourself you couldn't, though you tried both day and night.
Everybody makes mistakes, it happens all the time.
But if we try our best to fix them, we can make things just fine.

The road is long and hard, but you don't need to walk alone
I will go along with you until the time it's done.
It's more bearable with someone, and things are more fun with two.
So let us start out now and I will walk the road with you.

Always,
Beth

never knowing what you'll find
still I want you all the time
yeah I do
'cause you get me

Beth, by extending a hand, even to one who makes mistakes,
you have given the gift of forgiveness...
Something to learn from...

the gift of offering a hand to those who need it, normally this comes from someone who has been down the same pathway

That's something to keep in mind, Sunshine. Thank you for reading.

Thanks Sammie, I know what it is to make a mistake, most definitely!

Thanks Sandra, I hope he does too!

I have no idea what the future holds, Noah, but I hope it's something like you wished for me and him. Thank you.

Thank you Paul, I'm glad you liked it!

Seymour, I'm glad you liked it as well. Thanks!

Once again thank you everyone for your responses to this!

I believe that I've written a similar piece. Probably many have.

I like yours, very much.
