When youre down and troubled and you need a helping hand
and nothing, whoa, nothing is going right.
Close your eyes and think of me and soon I will be there
to brighten up even your darkest nights.

You just call out my name, and you know where ever I am
Ill come running to see you again.
Winter, spring, summer, or fall, all you have to do is call and Ill be there, yeah, yeah,

If the sky above you should turn dark and full of clouds
and that old north wind should begin to blow,
keep your head together and call my name out loud.
Soon I will be knocking upon your door.
You just call out my name, and you know where ever I am
Ill come running to see you again.
Winter, spring, summer, or fall, all you have to do is call and Ill be there.

Theyll hurt you and desert you. Well, theyll take your soul if you let them,

You just call out my name, and you know where ever I am
Ill come running to see you again.
Winter, spring, summer, or fall, all you have to do is call, Lord, Ill be there, yeah, yeah,
