When he calls on me tonight will I rise and have to greet him O Lord are you in need? He'll ask of me to think of some grounds on which to meet him O Lord are you in need? The porch across the street is cold and dark and empty O Lord are you in need? The window to the left holds warmth and light to tempt me O Lord are you in need? Can one man I admire ask kneeling for my kindness O Lord are you in need? This seamlessness I granted, was that due to my blindness? O Lord are you in need? Your face seems hardly that which I've pined for in the mirror O Lord are you in need? Nor the visage I held up to support me in life's furor O Lord can you be in need?
