I Need You Now

My friend I need you now.
Please take me by the hand.
Stand by me in my hour of need.
Take time to understand me.

Take my hand dear friend.
Lead me from this place. 
Chase away my doubts and fears.
Wipe the tears from off of my face.

Friend I can't stand alone.
I need your hand to hold.
The warmth of your gentle touch calms me.
In a world that's grown so cold.

Please be a friend to me.
Hold me day to day.
Your loving hand in mine.
I know we'll find the way.
