It's an awful thought that nobody cares
When the heart is wrapped in gloom,
That nobody cares when the soul aghast
Is facing the dreary tomb.
Somebody cares, the birds are singing,
Somebody cares, the bells are ringing,
Somebody cares for you.
If nobody cared, thy soul adrift
Would be lost, a homeless dove,
But somebody cares, the blood-stained cross
is a pledge of wondrous love.
Somebody cares, the stars are flashing,
Somebody cares, the waves are dashing,
Somebody cares for you.
'Tis a restful thought that somebody cares,
Mid the whirl and rush of life,
That somebody cares when in bitterness,
There are tears and pain and strife.
Somebody cares, it is no dreaming,
Somebody cares, it is not seeming,
Somebody cares for you.
