Verse 1
How long has it been
Since you talked with the Lord
And told Him your heart's hidden secrets
How long since you prayed
How long since you stayed
On your knees 'til the light shone through
How long has it been
Since your mind felt at ease
How long since your heart knew no burden
Can you call Him your Friend How long has it been
Since you knew that He cares for you
Verse 2
How long has it been
Since you knelt by your bed
And prayed to the Lord up in heaven
How long since you knew
That He'd answer you and would
Keep you the long night through
How long has it been
Since you woke with the dawn
And felt that the day's worth the living
Can you call Him your Friend how long has it been
Since you knew that He cares for you
