"I'll Be There / Warren's Song"

You and I must make a plan
We must bring salvation back
And if you need me, oh, I'll be there

When I was a little boy
My grandfather said to me
Said help your friends and neighbours
To live in harmony
When the man walks in darkness
And he stumbles right from wrong
You should be his brother
And help him all along

Take the time to look around
Your brothers on the ground
Please don't look the other way
Listen to what, what I, what I have to say

When I was a little boy
My grandfather said to me
Said to help your friends and neighbours
To live in harmony

[Solo]

Ha'ina 'ia mai ana ka puana
When I was a Keiki my Tutukani said to me
Said help your friends and neighbours
To live in harmony
When the man walks in darkness
He stumbles right from wrong
You should be his brother
And help him all along

I'll be there to help you through
You have faith in all I do
Just call my name
And I'll be there
Oh, I'll be there
Yes, I'll be there
