If you ever fall upon troubled times
If you're ever burdened with a troubled mind
Take my umbrella, it will shelter you from the rain
There's nothing to lose but everything to gain

When the world, when the world
Falls down around your shoulders
And you need a hand that's strong and kind
Reach out for mine, reach out for mine
And I will lead you through the storms of troubled times

Who knows, who knows
Who knows what's blowin' in tomorrow's wind?
You just might wake up and find you need a friend
I offer me to keep you safe and warm
After all boy, that's what friends, real friends are for

When the mountain, when the mountain of life stands before you
And you need a hand to help you make the climb
Then reach out for mine, reach right out for mine
And I will lead you through the storms of troubled times
I will lead you through the storms of troubled times
I will lead you through the storms of troubled times
