Friend or stranger
Everyone needs a helping hand
Now and then

Friend or stranger
They need someone who'll understand
To listen and then

Help them choose the way to go
Point them to the light
Someone who will brighten up their darkest night
And say it's alright

(Friend or stranger, needing a helping hand
(Friend or stranger, someone who'll understand)

Friend or stranger
Is it so hard to lend support
For a while?

Friend or stranger
It's so worthwhile to be a sport
And offer a smile

Give a little bit of yourself
Who knows where it will end?
You can turn a stranger into a friend
Oh, yes you can
(Friend or stranger, needing a helping hand)
(You can turn a stranger into a friend)
(Friend or stranger, needing a helping hand)
You can turn a stranger into a friend
