let me be a friend

Let me be a refreshing friend
A pool of water in the sand
In time of need, a strong hand
And always a sheltering tree

Let me have an encouraging word
Untangling quandaries that have worn
Your lines threadbare and torn
You apart from what you've known

Let me be a friend of strength
One who will go to any length
To make sure that you keep
On the course you want to see

And always a sheltering tree
