If there ever was a time,
I needed you before.
Lord, I need you now.
And if there ever was a child,
I couldn't handle on my own,
that's how this feels somehow
And if there ever was a child,
that was crying out for help,
that's what this song's about
Come about, as if there ever was a time
I needed you before,
Lord, I need you now
If I've ever had a friend,
who's always kept his word
Lord, I know it's you
Cause there's never been a time
that you left me all alone
Oh, been a true
Cause if I know anything
It's that you will meet my need
just like you always do
So I'm leaning on your love,
counting on your grace,
just to see me through.
I need you to remind me,
how faithful you have been.
And when I'm at my weakest,
that's where
your strength begins
If there ever was a time,
I needed you before,
Lord I need you now
And if there ever was a child
I couldn't handle on my own
That's how this feels somehow
And if there ever was a child
That was cry ing out for help
That's what this song's about
Cause if there ever was a time,
I needed you before
Lord, Lord I need you now
Cause if I've ever had a friend,
Lord I know it's you,
and I need you now
You
