Three Little Words

When there's someone around us,
Who's troubles never end,
And day to day they feel as though
Their heart will never mend
And we can see that we might have
A helping hand to lend,
We need to say three little words:
"I'm your friend."

When we see we're at fault
We shouldn't wait too long
Before we tell that person
We weren't right all along.
We need to ask forgiveness
Before this day is gone
We need to say three little words:
"I was wrong."

When trials overcome us
And there's a special need,
We need to turn to others
Who'll understand our plea.
But how can someone help us if
We struggle silently?
We need to say three little words:
"Pray for me."

If we do not know Jesus
We can't claim the reward.
we must accept salvation
'Cause we cannot afford
To miss God's gift of heaven and
Be lost forever more.
We need to say three little words:
"Save me Lord."

When there's a special person
You've given your heart to,
Someone you'd give your life for
And stay forever true.
If you feel this way for them
Then you cannot stay mute.
You need to say three little words:
"I love you."
