You gave me time when no one gave me time of day,<br />You looked deep inside while the rest of the world looked away,<br />You smiled at me when there were just frowns everywhere,<br />You gave me love when nobody gave me a prayer.<br />That's why I call You Saviour ..... that's why I call You Friend,<br />You touched my heart ..... You touched my soul,<br />And helped me start all over again,<br />That's why I love You, Jesus ..... that's why I'll always care,<br />You gave me love when nobody gave me a prayer.<br />You gave me laughter after I cried all my tears,<br />You heard my dreams while the rest of the world closed it's ears,<br />I looked in Your eyes, and I found the tenderness there,<br />You gave me love when nobody gave me a prayer.<br />That's why I call You Saviour ..... that's why I call You Friend,<br />You touched my heart ..... You touched my soul,<br />And helped me start all over again.<br />That's why I love You, Jesus ..... that's why I'll always care,<br />You gave me love when nobody gave me a prayer.<br />Song by B. J. Thomas<br />
