Have you ever needed someone
A shoulder just to cry on
To ease the agony
And find tranquility
A sweet and gentle touch
That speaks of words
Speaks of love that mean so much
Ordinary just wont do
I need someone, my Lord, I need someone
That someone is You, that someone is You
A quest in order to find
What lies in my heart in my soul in my mind
Sometimes serenity
But then there's misery
So many weaknesses and faults I've got to learn to
Share the inner most and secret thoughts
The ordinary person just won't do
Lord I need, Lord I need someone
That someone is You, that someone is You
Lord I need a special thought
And You mean so very much
Close friends they don't seem to understand
Problems in your life
So complex you say who can comprehend
Tragedy when you need relief
Only Jesus Christ can supply your need
A sweet and gentle touch
That would speak of word of love that mean so much
The ordinary just won't do
I need someone, Lord I need someone, yes I do
That someone is You, that someone is You
The ordinary just won't do
I need a love that's pure and true
I can always find it in you Jesus
The ordinary just wont do
I gotta have a touch from You
I can always find it in You Jesus
