I got a friend in L.A.; he's got problems, everyone knows,
He laughs while we're together, but he cries when he's all alone,
That empty feeling is all he remembers,
He always says he's going to change, I tell him talk is cheap,
Your life is expensive; the price was paid by Jesus, with his blood.

I know that God is real,
God is real.

I know a young girl, she's real happy, she's got lots of friends,
She's an American girl,
Life's just a party, the fun never ends...sure,
Late at night, she cries in her bedroom,
Wonders if anyone would care if she took her life,
Don't do it; you're being lied to,
There's a love that's real, that you can feel.

I know God can change your world, your world.

It's for the lonely ones that God has sent his only son,
His only son for you, ah.

God can change...change your world,
God can change...change your world,
God can change...change your world,
God can change your world, it's all up to you.
