"This song was written as a birthday gift for a friend, Bryan, who was there for me when times were tough. We should all be so lucky to have such friends. When we recorded it, I had my sister sing with me. We had a great time confusing the recording engineer because he could never tell which one of us was singing which part." - K.S.
Verse 1:
You have been to me
more than a friend in
time of need,
You have been to me more than you'll know.
When it came to be my darkest hour of indeed,
It was then that your true colors showed.
Chorus:
When everyone had turned and walked away,
when the faithful went to sleep.
Staying by myside my pain you took to share,
Staying on your knees interceding prayers.
Verse 2:
There are very few who come to understand
what it means to live and serve as Christ.
Bearing one another's burden's cries and cares,
loving one another as one's self. (CH)
Verse 3:
If you have done it for the least of these,
then you have done it unto me.
Yes, if you have done it for the least of these,
then you have done it unto me.
