[Verse]
Hey you over there, sitting on the stair
Seems that no one cares, looking in despair
Feeling a little lonely, go to God in prayer
Something on your mind, with me you can share

[Chorus]
Smile, God loves you, I do to
Smile, God loves you, I do to
Friend 'til the end, on him you can depend

[Verse]
Over in Africa, famine in the land
Lack of food and shelter, help is on the way
All the little children crying and suffering
Mothers and fathers broken-hearted, is there one who cares?

[Chorus]
Smile, God loves you, I do to
Smile, God loves you, I do to
Friend 'til the end, on him you can depend

[Bridge]
Don't hold your head down, don't make your face frown
Don't hold your head down, don't make your face frown (God is on your side)
Don't hold your head down, don't make your face frown (God is standing by)
Smile, tell God about your problems, they'll soon be over
Smile, don't worry about your problems, he's gonna solve them
Smile, tell God about your problems, they'll soon be over
Smile, don't worry about your problems, he's gonna solve them
[Chorus/Outro]
Smile, God loves you
Smile, God loves you
Smile, God loves you
Smile, God loves you
God is on your side, God is standing by
Wipe those tears from your eyes
Lift your head up to the sky
God is on your side, God is standing by
Wipe those tears from your eyes
Lift your head up to the sky
Smile, God loves you
Smile, God loves you
[Fade out]
