Words by Barbara Henry - Music by J. Roel Lungay

1 Thank you for List’ning, Thanks for being there. I had to pour my heart out to someone I knew would care.

2 Thank you for List’ning, Thanks for being there. I knew God sent you to me When I needed someone to [share/care].

Refrain 1: Words I’d never spoken And feelings never felt; The pain of loss, the loneliness, The anger and despair.

3 The blaming and accusing, The failure of a friend, Obsession and rejection - Lord, will it ever end?

4 The joys of life, the sorrows, The up-ups and the downs But worst of all the dryness When there’s nothing to be found.

Refrain 2: I reached out in the desert And I found you there! I found a friend to turn to When there wasn’t even prayer.

5 You opened up your ear And opened up your heart Even though I know you feared Again to take a part.

6 Thorns of life breed roses, Love comes out of pain, Joy amidst the sorrow And growth comes after rain.

Refrain 3: I reached out in the desert And I found you there! A friend I knew who’d been there, too, Someone to simply care.

(Repeat Stanzas 1 & 2)
