You Came Walking In

[John S. Caswell]

You Came Walking In

I’d like to thank you for your support,
for being a true friend.
In times of challenge as others walked out,
you came walking in.

You shared with me how you’ve overcome,
how you have been set free,
how by meeting challenges one by one
you now live with sobriety.

You didn’t preach, but said within my reach
I too could be set free.
To many friends, I’ve made amends
since you shared those words with me.

No longer caught in shadow cast
it’s a better life I share.
Your lessons taught as years have past,
truly prove how much you care.

I’d like to thank you for your support,
for being a true friend.
For in times of challenge as others walked out,
you came walking in.
