WHEN I WAS A BOY
I OPENED MY EYES
LOOKING FOR THE HAND
THAT MOVED THE CLOUDS ACROSS THE SKY
AND IN MY SIMPLE WAY
I BELIEVED
THE ONE WHO TURNS THE WORLD AROUND
WAS REACHING DOWN FOR ME
Chorus
AND HE'S FAITHFUL
TO TAKE ME THROUGH MY DARKEST HOUR
FAITHFUL
I'VE FELT HIS LOVE, I'VE SEEN HIS POWER
AND HE'S FAITHFUL
EVEN WHEN I'M NOT
WHEN I HAVEN'T GOT
THE STRENGTH OF WILL TO CARRY ON
HE SAYS, "LEAN ON ME AND I'LL BE STRONG"
AND HE'S FAITHFUL
THROUGH THE STORMY DAYS
OF TROUBLE AND TRIALS
I'M NOT AFRAID
TO FACE THE THUNDER AND THE FIRE
THE ENDLESS LOVE OF GOD
IT STAYS THE SAME
FAITH IS SUCH A SIMPLE THING
AND SIMPLE THINGS DON'T CHANGE
ChorusAnd into the sea goes pretty England and me
Around the Bay of Biscay and back for tea
Hit traffic on the Dogger bank
Up the Thames to find a taxi rank
Sail on by with the tide and go asleep
And the radio says
This is a low
But it won't hurt you
When you're alone it will be there with you
Finding ways to stay solo
On the Tyne Forth and Cromarty
There's a low in the high forties
Saturday's locked away on the pier
Not fast enough dear
And on the Malin Head
Blackpool looks blue and red
And the queen, she's gone round the bend
Jumped off Land's End
And the radio says
This is a low
But it won't hurt you
When you are alone it will be there with you
Finding ways to stay solo
This is a low
But it won't hurt you
When you are alone it will be there with you
This is a low
But it won't hurt you
When you are alone it will be there with you
Finding ways to stay solo
