When you're down and troubled
And you need some loving care
And nothing, nothing seems going right
Close your eyes and think of me
And soon I will be there
To brighten up, even your darkest night
You just call out my name
And you know wherever I am
I'll come running to see you again
Winter, spring, summer, or fall
All you have to do is call
And I'll be there, yes I will
You've got a friend
If the sky above you
Should turn dark and full of clouds
And that old north wind begins to blow
Just keep your head together
And call my name out loud
And soon you'll hear me knocking upon your door
You just call out my name...
Now ain't it good to know
That you've got a friend
When people can be so cold
They'll hurt you, yes, and desert you
And take your soul if you let them
But don't you let them
You just call out my name...
Ain't it good to know
Sister you've got a friend
You've got a mighty good friend in Jesus
Brother you've got a friend
Just call his name out loud
You've got a friend
