Friend


With so many things that are on my mind
It’s hard to express with the words I find
Wasn’t too long ago, You and I
We met again for the very first time
I spoke from my heart yea I was mad
Swore you were gone in the trials I had
Blamed you for my past, forgetting the fact
That through most of that, I never did ask
Never did seek, never let your hand
Move in my life in the way it could have
I didn’t know what was next to come
But I knew in my heart the old me was done
I still wasn’t sure what to do
But I knew my first step was get to know you
So I went to the Words You spoke
And we started getting close, quote by quote


I’m struggling and don’t know where to begin
But all that matter is you’re my friend,
All that matters is you’re my friend. (x2)

It wasn’t overnight, but day by day
I got to know you in a whole new way
I spent ten years living in sin
And for the first time I’d smile again
Yet inside, I could feel a storm
You told me it was time now to get reborn
I took an oath I’d live for your sake
Leaned back, let go, and died in that lake
I cracked the door when I turned from sin
But that day that we kicked the door in
The past was gone, life was brand new
There’s no way to say how much I owe you
There’s no greater love for who a man calls friend
Than to give his life, so this is my end
All I that I have is all that I am
I just want to know you, best as I can

I’m still amazed by the ways you bless
You show Yourself in ways Id never guess
It feels so right when we walk together
Now I know that’s why we’re going to live forever
I know we’ll have work, plenty of plans
But I hope we to talk, man to man
Only You teach me love and give me insight
So I pray every night that I’m doing what’s right
I slip sometimes, I make mistakes
I’m back on my feet many times as it takes
I know where to go when I’m bruised and battered
You’re love reminds me all that really matters
When I close my eyes I can see your face
And I picture going home to that perfect place
I’ll sit back reminisce on the places I’ve been
And forever praise Jesus, my best friend
