Sometimes I sit and wonder
About the blessings offered me
There is a special person
Who comes to mind quite naturally
When I witness his devotion
I still marvel endlessly
You see in spite of who I've been
He stands by me steadfastly
I have teased him without mercy
I've taunted him relentlessly
I have embarrassed him so many times
Without apology
There are times I've been ungrateful
There are times that I've been cruel
There are times I've been insensitive
There are times I've been a fool
But despite my indiscretions
Despite what circumstances say
When I call on him for help
He will always find a way
He will engage me with his humor
When it's time for us to play
He can uplift dismal spirits
With the things he's prone to say
He will listen without judgment
To anything I have to say
He will listen with compassion
When things have not gone my way
He will counsel me with love
When it seems I've lost my way
He will call on me to fight
When defeat seems to block my way
