Tell Him

Let me be patient
Let me be kind
Make me unselfish
without being blind
Though I may suffer, I'll envy him not
and endure what comes
Cause He's all that I got
And tell Him...

Tell Him I need Him
Tell him I love Him and it'll be alright
Tell him I need Him
Tell Him I love Him
It'll be alright

Now I may have faith to make mountains fall
But if I lack love then I have nothing at all
I can give away everything I possess
But am without love then I have no happiness
I know I'm imperfect and not without sin
But now that i'm older all childish things end

Tell Him I need Him
Tell him I love Him and it'll be alright
Tell him I need Him
Tell Him I love Him
It'll be alright

I'll never be jealous and I won't be too proud
Cause love is not boastful
And love is not loud
Tell him need him
Tell him I love him
Everything is gonna be alright

Now I may have wisdom and knowledge on earth
But if I speak wrong then what is it worth
See what we now know is nothing compared
To the love I was shown when our lives were spared
and tell Him...

Tell Him I need Him
Tell him I love Him and it'll be alright
Tell him I need Him
Tell Him I love Him
It'll be alright
