Brother, no need to shed a tear Angels of love can hear Have no fear Sister, know that when times are tough And you feel you've had enough Don't give up There is a melody That everyone should start singing It will make your life worth living Chorus: I have a friend above watching over me I have a friend above who has to set me free And when I call He hears me crying With His Love there's no denying He's watching over me, over me Mother, don't tear yourself apart Faith brings a brand new start Trust your heart Father, you carry a heavy weight I promise you will not wait At heaven's gate If you think someday You've gone astray And you want someone to lead the way Just believe and be strong With Him you'll never go wrong
