GHS 121 : Somebody Else Needs Him, Too Lyrics
GHS 121, “Somebody Else Needs Him, Too,” is an evangelism hymn built on a simple but convicting logic: if Christ has been everything to you, He needs to be that to someone else as well. The hymn works through the blessings believers have received: a true friend, a faithful Saviour, happiness, the Spirit’s love, the comfort of being God’s child. And to every blessing it adds the same gentle reminder: somebody else needs this. Somewhere near you, someone is waiting, and you have been given the gospel precisely so that you can share it.
It is one of the less strident evangelism hymns in the collection, approaching the subject with warmth rather than urgency. This hymn appears as number 121 in the Gospel Hymns and Songs (GHS) collection, used in Deeper Life Bible Church and related assemblies across West Africa.
Hymn Lyrics – GHS 121: Somebody Else Needs Him, Too
- If you’ve found Jesus the Friend that you need, If He is loving and true, If you have found Him a Saviour indeed, Somebody else needs Him, too.
Somebody somewhere perhaps at your side; Someone is waiting for you; Say that for all Jesus suffered and died; They need Him, they need Him, too.
-
If you are happy, and praise fills your heart, Trust Him to carry you through; If He His Spirit and love can impart, Somebody else needs Him, too.
-
If you have comfort in being God’s child, If He is faithful to you, Think, when you see those whom sin has defiled, Somebody else needs Him, too.
-
When the Lord gives you His love and His care, Something He gives you to do; You have the gospel with others to share, Somebody else needs Him, too.
