Such proud proud eyes
I never saw you cry
You were strong enough
To make it though the years
Still there comes a time in every single life
When like a baby we can all be brought to tears

When you're crumbling like a wall beneath the flood,
Call my name and I'll be there to lift you up

Chorus:
If you ever need someone
To be with you through the darkest of times
Whisper a prayer and I'll meet you there
I'll hold you close and I'll be your guiding light
I'll be your guiding light

Some are broken by the sorrows of their lives
Some are broken by a love they can't explain
No one knows their need before they know defeat
It's from a storm cloud that mercy sends us rain

It's not a question of if the storms will come
So when it happens, you will need a place to run

Repeat Chorus

When you're lost & far from all that you have hoped in
I'll be waiting and my arms will be wide open
