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 [bad word]  '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 [bad word] 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
