How long has it been
Since you talked with the Lord
And told Him your heart's hidden secrets?
How long sinc eyou prayed?
How long since you stayed
On your kneeds till the light shone through?
How long has it been
Since you knew that He cared for you?
How long has it been
Since you knelt by your bed
And prayed to the Lord up in heaven?
How long since you knew
that He'd answer you and would
Keep you th elong night through?
How long has it been
Since you woke with the dawn
And felt that the day's worth the living?
Can you call Him your friend?
How long has it been?
Since you knew that He cared for you?
