”Parade around you...”

Let me be your friend

Take my hand and we'll explore the world.

You can lean on me

I will guide you through the rocks of the ocean.

I'll never let you down

I'll never laugh at your failure.

I will lift you up and say

never give up, but go forward and

find out what you can be

who you really are...

I'm not like those nasty voices

you've heard so many times

that they have made their nest

inside you... as they nag and

tease and scream and as they

parade around you

making you feel so weak and

lure you into giving up and

letting go of the hope to find

a better way to stop the wrong doing

that harms you...

Come. Look deep in my eyes.

Come, don't you see.

I'm you, I know every tough and hard

I've been there all the way with thee.

You can cry on my shoulder, you can squeeze

my hand. I'm not gonna go away

I'm here for you, I will stand

I will help you come around. Teach you

to stop listening those voices.

I will show you how happiness is

all around, you just need to open

your eyes and see a little different.

It might be hard I know

But trust me, it's worth it.

One day when you'll come around

you are a living proof it's working.

Just see a little different

just hear the little sound

which whispers into your ear

and says it can be found.

All the love and joy

all the acceptance you yearn

You can shut those nasty voices out

and learn how to really live again.

They don't have the power over you

They don't have the knowledge I know

They are just trying to scare you down

'cause if they don't they know,

you'll show the whole world

That it's possible to stop listening

that it's possible to rise and shine

That you are capable of re-learning

and finding your true self and get out.

From the prison that's in your head

maybe assisted when it came there

But that it's all just an illusion

and it disappears if you decide

To learn to think different and follow

the little voice inside.

That's me, my friend! (the Holy Spirit of the Living God)
