[Verse 1]
Hold me like the river Jordan
And I will then say to Thee, You are my friend
Carry me like you are my brother
Love me like a mother, will You be there?
[Verse 2]
Weary, tell me, will You hold me?
When wrong, will You scold me? When lost, will You find me?
But they told me a man should be faithful
And walk when not able and fight till the end, but I'm only human
[Verse 3]
Everyone's takin' control of me
Seems that the world's got a role for me
I'm so confused, will You show to me?
You'll be there for me and care enough to bear me
[Verse 4]
Hold me, lay Your head lowly (Show me, told me)
Softly, then boldly, carry me there (Yeah, I'm only human)
Lead me, love me and feed me (Hold me, yeah, yeah)
Kiss me and free me, I will feel blessed (Yeah, I'm only human)
Carry, carry me boldly (Carry, carry, yeah)
Lift me up slowly, carry me there (Yeah, I'm only human)
Save me, heal my and bathe me (Lead me, lift me up, lift me up)
Softly You say to me, I will be there (I will be there)
Lift me, lift me up slowly (Told me, yeah)
Carry me boldly, show me You care (Yeah, will You be there?)
Hold me, lay Your head lowly (Woo, I get lonely sometimes)
Softly, then boldly, carry me there (I get lonely, yeah, yeah, will You be there?)
Lead me, love me and feed me (Woo, lift me up, hold me up)
Kiss me and free me, I will feel blessed (Lift me up sometimes, oh, sometimes, yeah)
[Outro]
In our darkest hour, in my deepest despair
Will You still care? Will You be there?
In my trials and my tribulations
Through our doubts and frustrations
In my violence, in my turbulence
Through my fear and my confessions
In my anguish and my pain
Through my joy and my sorrow
In the promise of another tomorrow
I'll never let You part
For You're always
In my heart
