France Joli & Tony Green - Come to Me - scripture version

Come to Me
When You're all alone and feeling down
Come to Me
When there's nobody else around
Come to Me
I'm still waiting, opened armed for You
Come to Me
Cause I will comfort You
When You've no one to turn to
I will be here just for You

Come to Me
When Your world is empty and cold
Come to Me
When You need someone You want to hold
Come to Me
In My arms I will keep You safe and warm
Come to Me
I will shelter You from the storm
I'm not one to pretend
Why can't You understand

Chorus:
That I love You and I love You
And I need You and I want You
And I love You and I love You
And I need You
And I want You, come to Me

I'm a lonely man, but if only I could learn to cry
Maybe then the pain inside Me would subside
Come to Me and I will comfort You
Show You what love can do
I'm a lonely man living in a world of dreams
I've got everything, but the one thing that I really need
Come to Me; I'll give You all the love You need
Cause I have love just for You

Come to Me
When Your world is empty and cold
Come to Me
When You need someone You want to hold
Come to Me
In My arms I will keep You safe and warm
Come to Me
I will shelter You from the storm
I'm not one to pretend
Why can't You understand that I love You

And I love You and I need you
And I want You and I love You
And I love You and I need you
And I want you
Come to me I love you

Love you
Love you
Need you
Want you

Oh baby I love you
Oh baby I need you
Oh baby I love you
Oh baby I need you
Oh baby I love you
Oh baby I need you
Oh baby I love you
Oh baby I need you

Come to me I love you
And I love you
And I need you
And I want you
And I love you
And I love you
And I need you
Come to me, hee, eee - hee

Oh baby I love you

[Repeat to fade]

The biblical word, “You” refers to:

baby Jesus, the son of Mary

or the child of God


The biblical word, “Me” refers to:

Jesus, the bread of life,

the Lord God

or virgin mother Mary, Queen of Galilee

“Come to Me” is a #1 inspirational Christian-flavored disco hit from 1979

performed by Canadian pop star France Joli, who had recorded it at the age of fifteen

with producer, Tony Green, who composed the song and briefly sings on it.



The track also features the famed Philadelphia session vocalists, The Sweethearts of Sigma Sound.

Introduced on the album France Joli, which was released in the US on 17 April 1979 on Prelude, and rose to #26.

On the Billboard Hot 100. “Come to Me” received a major boost on 7 July when Joli performed it as a last minute replacement for Donna Summer at a concert held on Fire Island, whose estimated audience numbered 5000. “Come to Me” began a three week reign atop the Billboard Hot Dance Club Play on 22 September 1979.[1] “Come to Me” peaked at #15, on the Hot 100 and at #36 on the R&B,[2] a decent showing for a new artist, but also a symptom of the increasing disenchantment of Top 40 radio stations with disco music.
