He’ll Be There

When the night is dark and there’s no hope in sight,
When you doubt your faith and what you think is right,
When you’ve lost your way and you need to feel loved,
Turn your eyes to Him Who watches from above!

He’ll be there for you, your pain He’ll understand.
He will dry your tears, warm your heart, hold your hand.
You will find that He has suffered just like you,
And He’ll see you safely all your journey through.

When your friends have gone and left you all alone,
And your hopes and dreams like an eagle have flown
When you think your life is a worthless charade,
When your heart is pained, when you’re weak and afraid,

When you wonder why you suffer as you do,
When you’re doubting that God is really with you;
When the way is hard and the valley’s so deep,
When the grade you climb is so rugged and steep,
