Hold me like the river Jordan
and I will then say to thee you are my friend
carry me like you are my brother
love me like a mother will you be there

Weary tell me will you hold me
when wrong will you scold me when lost will you find me
but they told me a man should be faithful
and walk when not able and fight till the end but I'm only human

Everyone's taking control of me
seems that the world's got a role for me
I'm so confused will you show to me
you'll be there for me and care enough to bear me

Hold me lay your head lowly
(softly then boldly carry me there)
(need me love me and feed me)
(kiss me and free me I will feel blessed)

Carry carry me boldly
(lift me up slowly carry me there)
(save me heal me and bathe me)
(softly you say to me I will be there)

Lift me lift me up slowly
(carry me boldly show me you care)
(hold me lay your head lowly)
(softly then boldly carry me there)

Need me love me and feed me
(kiss me and free me I will feel blessed)
