76. Somebody Cares

1 Never alone in this earthly way,
Somebody cares, Somebody cares;
I have a helper each busy day;
Somebody cares, ‘tis Jesus;
Somebody cares when the clouds hand low,
Cares when my heart is o’erwhelmed with woe,
Care and is marking my path below,
Somebody cares, ‘tis Jesus.

Refrain:
Somebody cares for me,
Somebody cares for me,
In all my life His kind hand I see,
Somebody cares, ‘tis Jesus.

2 When I am singing a happy song,
Somebody cares, Somebody cares;
When I am fighting against the wrong,
Somebody cares, ‘tis Jesus;
Somebody cares when I stand alone,
Cares when the pleasures of earth are gone,
Cares when my false hopes with wings have flown,
Somebody cares, ‘tis Jesus. [Refrain]

3 When I am weary and long for rest,
Somebody cares, Somebody cares;
When by the tempter I’m sorely press’d,
Somebody cares, ‘tis Jesus;
Somebody cares, and whate’er betide,
Walks ev’ry hour by the Christian’s side,
Love so amazing will e’er abide,
Somebody cares, ‘tis Jesus. [Refrain]
