Let me be patient, let me be kind Make me unselfish without being blind Though I may suffer, I'll envy it not And endure what comes, 'cause he's all I got, and tell him...
Tell him I need him Tell him I love him And it'll be alright
Now I may have strength to make mountains fall But if I lack love, then I am nothing at all I can give away everything I possess But I'm without love then I have no happiness I know I'm imperfect and not without sin But now that I'm older all childish things end, and tell him...
Now I won't be jealous And I won't be too proud 'Cause love is not boastful And love is not loud
Tell him I need him Tell him I love him And everything will be alright
Now I may have wisdom and knowledge on earth But if I speak wrong, what is it worth? See what we now know is nothing compared To the love that was shown when our lives were spared
So, so tell him Tell him I need him Tell him I love him And it's gonna be, it's gonna be alright Alright
