Up and down the city streets
The lonely people go
In their wounded hearts are hurts
That we will never know
In and out of broken dreams
They wander every day
If my words could reach them
I would say, I would say
For every lonely heart, there's an answer
For every silent voice is a prayer
For every empty life that lives in longing
Somebody's there, somebody cares
For every broken dream, there can be healing
And you don't have to face it all alone
For every lonely heart, the Lord is waiting
To take and make your lonely heart His own
Hidden in their quiet eyes
Is pain too deep to share
Just like weeds, their problems grow
They grow up everywhere
Down the darkened streets at night
In loneliness they go
If my song could touch their lives
They'd know, they would know
For every lonely heart, there's an answer
For every silent voice is a prayer
For every empty life that lives in longing
Somebody's there, somebody cares
For every broken dream, there can be healing
And you don't have to face it all alone
For every lonely heart, the Lord is waiting
To take and make your lonely heart
For every lonely heart, there's an answer
For every silent voice is a prayer
For every empty life that lives in longing
Somebody's there, somebody cares
For every broken dream, there can be healing
And you don't have to face it all alone
For every lonely heart, the Lord is waiting
To take and make your lonely heart His own
For every lonely heart, there's an answer
For every silent voice is a prayer
For every empty life that lives in longing
Somebody's there, somebody cares
For every broken dream, there can be healing
And you don't have to face it all alone
For every lonely heart, the Lord is waiting
To take and make your lonely heart His own
