When it's all too much when I've gone too far astray
When I'm lost in shame too afraid to pray
When I hold my pain inside and I know it's wrong
And the fall I take is not where I belong
Could you stand up for me
'Cause I can't find the strength in my life
Oh to do what's right
I can't sleep 'cause I'm in so deep this time
And I'm so entwined I've lost my peace of mind
When I can't face the day
Could you show me the way with your light
Oh how I need
Love and understanding
I hope I will find
Love and understanding
No reason to hide
Love and understanding
I pray there will be
Love and understanding
Will you be there
Be there to understand me
When I see the Cross up against the blood red sky
So I can stand tall yeah and hold my head up high
Well you did it for me out of the love in your heart
I'm starting to see
Love and understanding
I know I will find
Love and understanding
No reason to hide
Love and understanding
I know there will be
Love and understanding
It's gonna be there for me
When I fell down
It's your love I found
Love and understanding
I found an understanding heart
Love and understanding
I know you will be there for me
Love and understanding
Got no reason to hide
Love and understanding
I found an understanding friend
Love and understanding
Understand my heart my soul
Love and understanding
I know you will be there for me
Love and understanding
Got no reason to hide
Love and understanding
You'll be by my side
