As he turns to ask me, why?

So I look to you for what to do.
As he asks me why he starts to cry,
so now I'm asking you, how?

How can I say?
How can I show?
How can I begin to tell him everything I know?
How can I be, the Friend that he needs?
Lord I just need for you to tell me, how?

From up above you send you love
But I still see his fear and he knows Satan’s near
As the tears overwhelm his eyes.

But I wipe them dry, try to tell him why
And that you love him so much and he can feel your touch
If he'll just close his eyes.

Chorus
