One Who Cares (with Eastwood Jr. Hi Choir)
A lonely man is led to Christ by a group of kids learning "where there is love, there is life."

Story behind the song
In the musical, this song was sung by one of the students. When it came time to record, his voice had changed and he could no longer sing it. So I did.
Lyrics
"ONE WHO CARES" by Jeff Leslie 1977
Show me one who cares about the way I feel
And I'll show you the only one of his kind
I never had friends. I grew up all alone
And nobody cares if I'm dead or alive
I wish that this was a world
That loved me in spite of the past in my life
Then I'd have reason to live
There must be someone who cares
No matter how bad all the problems I've had
And knows an answer he can give
Did you know God loves you?
No I can't say I knew that He did
Do you know He cares?
No I don't but if he does then I truly like to meet Him.
If you like, we'll share Him
Yes please tell me what you have to say.
Then please listen to the wonderful love He has given for you.
About 2000 years ago God sent His Son
To live in the world like you and me and do the things we've done.
But Jesus Christ was perfect and He never sinned.
Though he was tempted same as we, He never did give in.
One day they took this Man and nailed Him to a tree.
They mocked and cursed His Holy name
And stood and watched Him bleed.
After He had died, they placed Him in a grave.
But praise the Lord, He rose again,
And sacrificed away our sin.
And now because of Him we can be saved.
Would you like to know Him?
Yes I would what do I have to do?
You must pray this prayer.
And now because of this Man
There's someone who loves me whoever I am.
He's shown a new love in my life.
If I could bill me explain his love to the land maybe they'd understand
Where there is love there is life!
