All she hears is silence/All she knows is pain/The hand she holds is growing cold/His smile slowly fades/I struggle with the words to say/Her life will never be the same/Silently, I watch her lift her hands/And start to pray//Lord, just one more moment/One more look, one more kiss/Lord, just one more moment/He can’t leave me like this/I only need one moment/To say one last goodbye/Oh Lord, why can’t you hear me?/Why does he have to die?//I wonder at her as the hours go by/As day melts into night/For three long hours, she’s wept and prayed/Pleading with God to make it right/Suddenly, the cross comes to my mind/My knees go weak as I realize/For three dark hours, God above wept alone/As my Savior died//Oh, for one more moment/One more look, one more kiss/Oh, for one more moment/I can’t watch Him hurt like this/I only need one moment/To say one last goodbye/oh, why must He do this?/Why does He have to die?//I’ll always remember that night years ago/When I felt for the very first time/The suffering that the Father felt for His suffering Son/As He gave His life for mine.

I see a child with his hand stretched out/His eyes searching for the love he longs for/I see his father push down to his knees/His mind spinning with the lies he’s lived for/Both are hurting, each in his own way/Forced together,only to pull away/If only they knew/The love they need is right within reach//Jesus the Friend that sticks closer than a brother/Jesus the Light as we travel life’s road/Jesus the Voice when our world seems so silent/Jesus whose love gives us hope//I see a child alone on the street/Weeping softly for the hurt deep inside/I see her lift her stinging eyes up to heaven/Wailing, asking, “Why do I have to cry?”/She turns back to her house, now noone else lives there/All she asks is for somebody just to care/If only she knew/The love she needs is right within reach//Jesus the Friend that sticks closer than a brother/Jesus the Light as we travel life’s road/Jesus the Voice when our world seems so silent/Jesus whose love gives us hope//Why are these children so lonely?/What makes this world cause as much pain as it does?/O God, can you hear us begging within/For love, for love?//Jesus the Friend that sticks closer than a brother/Jesus the Light as we travel life’s road/Jesus the Voice when our world seems so silent/Jesus whose love gives us hope//I see a child with his hand stretched out/His eyes searching for the love he longs for.
