Tell Him
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.
Let me be patient, let me be kind
Make me unselfish without being blind
Though I may suffer I'll envy it not
And endure what comes
'Cause he's all that I got and tell him
Tell him I need him
Tell him I love him and it'll be alright
Tell him I need him
Tell him I love him
It'll be alright
Now I may have faith to make mountains fall
But if I lack love then I am nothing at all
I can give away everything I possess
But left without love then I have no happiness
I know I'm imperfect and not without sin
But now that I'm older all childish things end and tell him
Tell him I need him
Tell him I love him and it'll be alright
Tell him I need him
Tell him I love him
It'll be alright
I'll never be jealous and I won't be too proud
'Cause love is not boastful and love is not loud
Tell him need him
Tell him I love him
Everything is gonna be alright
Now I may have wisdom and knowledge on Earth
But if I speak wrong then what is it worth?
See, what we now know is nothing compared to the love
That was shown when our lives were spared and tell him
Tell him I need him
Tell him I love him and it'll be alright
Tell him I need him
Tell him I love him
It'll be alright
