B J Thomas - You Gave me Love (when Nobody Gave me a Prayer) - Текст песни

You gave me time
When no one gave me time of day
You looked deep inside
While the rest of the world looked away
You smiled at me
When there were just frowns everywhere
You gave me love
When nobody gave me a prayer

That's why I call you Saviour
That's why I call you friend
You touched my heart
You touched my soul
And helped me start all over again
That's why I love you Jesus
That's why I'll always care
You gave me love
When nobody gave me a prayer

You gave me laughter
After I cried all my tears
You heard my dreams
While the rest of the world closed it's ears
I looked in your eyes
And I found the tenderness there
You gave me love
When nobody gave me a prayer

That's why I call you Saviour
That's why I call you friend
You touched my heart
You touched my soul
And helped me start all over again
That's why I love you Jesus
That's why I'll always care
You gave me love
When nobody gave me a prayer
