When you need a friend
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
When you need a friend to talk to,
When you need a friend who cares
It really doesn't matter where you are,
He is always there
Life is still worth living don't let it get
you down. He will always lift you up;
He never let's you down
And don't forget to listen to the silence of His love
You may think that He's not listening, don't question His love
He will always help you; He'll take away your fears
He will bring the sunshine that helps to dry your tears
Don't get so busy you forget that He is near
When you need a friend to talk to, He will be there
And don't forget to listen to the silence of His love
You my think that He's not listening. Trust in His love
Talk to him each morning, it's a great way to start your day
Offer everything you'll do, and everything you'll say
When you know He's with you, nothing can go wrong
He will walk beside you, invite Him along
And don't forget to listen to the silence of His love
You may think that He's not listening. Remember He is love
Life is still worth living. Don't let it get you down
He will always pick you up. He never let's you down
We all get so busy we forget that He is there
When you need a friend to talk to,
When you need a friend to talk to,
When you need a friend to talk to......
He will be there
