Baptist TOP1000
ALONE

Alone I sit, alone I cry
No-one visits they just pass by
Busy lives, no thought for me,
I wish they'd call for a cup of tea
 

No one to talk to, nowhere to go
Minutes seem like hours time goes so slow
It's dark in the morning and afternoon
Wintry days, let springtime come soon
 

The one day a lady pops in for a chat
We started to talk about this and about that
She tells me of a friend of hers
And how he gave his life to share
 

Good news about eternal life
No longer will I have this strife
He'll come and live inside of me
From all my cares He'll set me free
 

I listen carefully to what she has to say
Then she asks if I'd like to paray
The sinners prayer to invite him in
Then I can start my life again
 

Free from hurt and all that pain
My life will never be the same
I once was blind but now I see
Because Jesus lives inside of me
