I was there from the beginning
And to my love, there is no ending
I'll walk with you every step of the way
All you need to do is believe in me (refrain/title)

My word is everlasting and is true

I know you've been questioning all the time
I see the path you've been trying hard to find
I know you've been struggling all the time
Wait, don't be afraid, and I will hold you tight
Trying so hard to make your way
Doubting me, huh? no way
Believe in me I will make your day
All you need to do is believe in me day and night

Just get on board and take a ride with me
Let me be your light and guide, one and only

Otherwise, everything around will feel lonely and meaningless. The second verse cautions the listener to be careful with their wishes, as they could lead to unintended and unwanted consequences.
