Helen Baylor - Can You Reach My Friend lyrics

[VERSE 1:]

I got a call from an old friend

We laughed about how we had changed

But I could tell things weren't going as well

as he claimed

He tried to hide his feelings

But they only gave him away

The longer I listened,

The more I kept wishing that

I knew the right words to say

(chorus)

Can You reach my friend ?

Bring his searching to an end

Lord, I know you love him

Help him understand

Can You reach my friend?

Your the only one who can

Help him give his heart to You

[VERSE 2:]

We talked for more than an hour

I smiled when he mentioned Your name

I said that I knew You

I told him the difference You made

But he never thought he would need You

But maybe he's changing his mind

As we said goodbye Lord

He told me that I had found

Something that he'd like to find

chorus

Maybe he's ready tonight

Lord, he said that he might

Need to call on You

Help him give his heart to You
