If I Ever Needed Someone

Lord, if I ever needed someone

I need You

Lord, if I ever needed someone

I need You

To see me through the daytime (See me through the daytime)

And through the long, lonely night

To lead me through the darkness

And on into the light

To stand with me when I'm troubled (Stand with me when I'm troubled)

And help me through my strife

The times get so uncertain, I turn to You

Turn to You in my young life

Lord, if I ever needed someone

I need You

Lord, if I ever needed someone

I need You

Someone to hold onto (Someone to hold to)

And keep me from all fear

Someone to be my guiding light

And keep me ever dear

To keep me from a-my selfishness (To keep me from my selfishness)

To keep a-me from all my sorrow

To lead me on to givingness

So I can see a new tomorrow

Lord, if I ever needed someone

I need You

Lord, if I ever needed someone

I need You

Someone to walk with

Whoa, someone to hold by the hand

Someone to talk with

Someone to understand

Yeah (Yeah)

Yeah (Yeah)

To call on when I need You (To call on when I need You)

And I need You very much

To open up my arms to You

Feel your tender touch (Feel your tender touch)

To feel it and to keep it (Feel it and to keep it)

Just right here in my soul (Yeah, yeah)

And care for it and keep it with me

Never to grow old (Never, never to grow old)

Lord, if I ever needed someone

I need You

Lord, if I ever needed someone

I need You

One more time, again

Lord, if I ever needed, needed some-a-one

I need You

Lord, oh, if I ever needed some-a-one

I need You
