A reading from Wisdom Literature
From the Broadway play, “Dear Evan Hansen”
Have you ever felt like nobody was there?
Have you ever felt forgotten in the middle of nowhere?
Have you ever felt like you could disappear?
Like you could fall, and no one would hear?
But see, see the thing is, when I looked up and my friend was there
That was the gift she gave me, to show me that I wasn’t alone
To show me that I mattered Everybody matters.
That’s the gift
Well, let that lonely feeling wash away
Maybe there’s a reason to believe you’ll be okay
‘Cause when you don’t feel strong enough to stand
You can reach, reach out your hand
And someone will coming running
And I know, they’ll take you home
Even when the dark comes crashing through
When you need a friend to carry you
And when you’re broken on the ground
You will be found
So let the sun come streaming in
‘Cause you’ll reach up and you’ll rise again
Lift your head and look around-You will be found!
Even when the dark comes crashing through
When you need a friend to carry you
And when you’re broken on the ground
You will be found
