Everybody needs somebody to rely on
To rely on, realize
Everybody needs somebody?s shoulder to cry on
Just to cry on, realizeAre you gonna lend a hand and assist?
I wanna send you thereGo
From the top of the world
To the bottom rung
'Til the work is done
I'm gonna send youGo
From the break of the dawn
To the age's end
Someone's needing a friend
I'm gonna send youEverybody needs somebody for the long ride
For the long ride, ride along
Everybody needs somebody coming alongside
Come alongside, side alongAre you gonna lend a hand or a fist?
I wanna send you thereGo
From the top of the world
To the bottom rung
'Til the work is done
I'm gonna send youGo
From the break of the dawn
To the age's end
Somebone's needing a friend
I'm gonna send youGonna send you out one by one
If I need it sung, can you sing it loud?
Gonna send you two by two
Outta the ark, into the wild blueGonna come along by your side
Send along my Spirit guide
I'm gonna show you miracles
Cover the earth, make disciples
I wanna send you thereGo
From the top of the world
To the bottom rung
'Til the work is done
I'm gonna send youGo
From the ends of the earth
To the nearest gap
All over the map
I'm gonna send youGo
From the top of the world
To the bottom rung
'Til the work is done
I'm gonna send youGo
From the break of the dawn
To the age's end
Someone's needing a friend
I'm gonna send you
