Song information
The lyrics of "I Turn to You" are an ode from the narrator to a person who helps them find the proverbial light in the rain when she is lost or losing ground. The single is written with the theme of thanking a parental figure (her mother) (as evidenced by the music video produced for Aguilera's version.) However, the song's lyrics are ambiguous enough to where the lyrics can apply to a lover, a friend, or another family member.
The song was re-written in Spanish, and titled "Por Siempre Tú" (English: Forever You), for Aguilera's first Spanish-language album, Mi Reflejo.
Music Video
The identity of the director of the videos for "I Turn to You" and "Por siempre tú" remains somewhat of a mystery. At the time of the videos' release, MTV had the director listed as Rupert C. Almont. However, the inlay for the DVD Deluxe Editon of Keeps Gettin' Better - A Decade of Hits lists the director as Richard C. Allen. It is likely that both are simply pseudonyms for top director Joseph Kahn, as it was Kahn who appeared as director on the episode of Making the Video that chronicled the making of this music video.

I know I'll find the light to light my way
When I'm scared, losing ground, when my world is going crazy
You can turn it all around yes
And when I'm down you're there pushing me to the top
You're always there givin' me all you've got
For a shield from the storm, for a friend, for a love to keep me safe and warm, I turn to you
For the strength to be strong, for the will to carry on
For everything you do, for everything that's true I turn to you, yes
When I lose the will to win I just reach for you and I can reach the sky again
I can do anything, 'cause your love is so amazing
Cause your love inspires me and when I need a friend you're always on my side
Givin' me faith to get me through the night

@@Forever-xz5sj Christianity was never about religion.
Souls get forgiven and saved for real.
Sous go down to hell, paying for their sins for themselves for real.
Christ came to set an example how to live for real and He died for all of our sins for real.
Rapture - real life even soon to take place.
Tribulation (Jacob's trouble) - real life event - soon to take place.
Real GOD and His real promises:
1.)Outwardly peace
2.) wisdom and understanding about heavenly thinks
3.) providing food and clothing, expecting souls to seek out His Kingdom.
4.) Protection against every weapons which shall be formed against us.
5.) Free gift = eternal life.
What spot about Christianity seems religious?
GOD is real, humans are real, earth is real. etc.
Logic says, what`s real, means reality.
The facts about religions :
1 = all are lies/ false ways to heaven.
2 = all origin from masons.
Now try with religions.
What religion promises real thinks?
2 BIBLE verse, which share clues about masons:
John 8:44
John 10:1

When I'm lost in the rain,
In your eyes I know I'll find the light
To light my way.
And when I'm scared,
And losing ground,
When my world is going crazy,
You can turn it all around.
And when I'm down you're there,
Pushing me to the top.
You're always there,
Giving me all you've got.
[Chorus:]
For a shield from the storm,
For a friend, for a love,
To keep me safe and warm,
I turn to you.
For the strength to be strong,
For the will to carry on,
For everything you do,
For everything that's true,
I turn to you.
When I lose the will to win,
I just reach for you and
I can reach the sky again.
I can do anything,
'Cause your love is so amazing,
'Cause your love inspires me.
And when I need a friend,
You're always on my side,
Giving me faith,
Taking me through the night.
[Chorus]
For the arms to be my shelter
Through all the rain,
For truth that will never change,
For someone to lean on,
For a heart
I can rely on through anything,
For that one
Who I can run to.

My daughter told me that this is her song to me. She was murdered in 2005. This song, although it makes me cry and breaks my heart, it also comforts me.
