There
Is a sad and lonely man
He comes home once again
And once again is greeted by an empty room
He sighs
And he says a little prayer
For all he wants is to be loved
And love someone who'll drive away
this lonely gloom

And he
May never see
The loving hand of God
As it reaches out to touch the one
Who'll share his soul
And he
May never hear the prayer
Of one who does not know his name
And yet someday will be the half
That makes him whole

Somewhere
There's someone who softly weeps
A woman of pure heart
She needs someone to love and hold her tenderly
She prays
And asks the Lord above
Please send her someone she can love
Who will stay and love her too as long as life may be

And she
May never see
The loving hand of God
As it reaches out to touch the one
Who'll share her soul
And she
May never hear the prayer
Of one who does not know her name
And yet someday will be the half
That makes her whole

One day
At a bus stop north of town
She leaves her purse behind
A stranger gives it back to her
And smiles so kind
In time
Seperate lives turn into one
Each says a thankful prayer
Content to leave their sad and lonely days behind

And they
Could never see
The loving hand of God
As it reached across to touch the one who shares their soul
And they
Lift up a joyous prayer
And thank the Lord for bringing them
The one who ended loneliness and made them whole

And we
May never see
The loving hand of God
As it reaches out to touch the one
Who'll share our soul
And we
Will wait expectantly
For the day that God brings you to me
And you and I will finally make each other whole.
