[Chorus]
G          D           C               GLord, if I ever needed someone, I need You
G          D           C               GLord, if I ever needed someone, I need You

[Verse 1]
Em                           G   To see me through the daytime
Em                      G   Through the long, lonely night
Em                     G   Lead me through the darkness
    C           GAnd on into the light
Em                        G   Stand with me when I'm in trouble
Em                          G   And help me through my strife
Em                   G   At times get so uncertain
          C            GI turn to You, turn to You in my life
