Van Morrison Lyrics

"If I Ever Needed Someone" lyrics



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
At 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-a 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
(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 keep it)
To keep it right here in my soul
(Yeah, yeah)
And care for it and keep it with me
(Never, never to grow old)
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
