When by friends I’m forsaken

November 19

When by friends I’m forsaken
There’s some One who cares;
When by sin overtaken
There’s some One who cares;
When the world turns away,
And I scarcely can pray,
I know there is some One who cares.

When my hopes turn to ashes
There’s some One who cares;
When the wild tempest lashes
There’s some One who cares;
When my heart cries within,
All because of my sin,
I know there is some One who cares.

When my heart is repenting
There’s some One who cares;
When my will is relenting
There’s some One who cares;
When I fall at His feet,
And my story repeat,
‘Tis Jesus my Savior who cares.

Chorus
There’s some One who cares,
There’s some One who cares,
My joys and my sorrows He shares;
He is touched by my woes,
And my weakness He knows,
And for me He tenderly cares.
