I’ve never heard You say
What have you done for me lately?
What have you done to earn my graces?
I’ve never heard You speak
Anything but Your love for me
Anything but identity
What a friend I’ve found in You, Jesus
What a friend I’ve found in You
When no one else could keep their promise
I can always count on You
You’ve only made me feel
That I was welcome in Your house
That I was honored and adored
You’ve seen me at my worst
But You’ve never held it against me
You’re running to me when I return
What a friend I’ve found in You, Jesus
What a friend I’ve found in You
When no one else could keep their promise
I can always count on You
You’ve been my savior
You’ve been my shield
You’ve been my defender on the battlefield
You’ve been my father, You’ve been my rock
You’ve been my portion and You’re more than enough
You’ve been my shelter, You’ve been my Strength
You’ve been my provider again and again
You’ve been my redeemer and I can’t comprehend
How the God of creation would call me His friend
What a friend I’ve found in You, Jesus
What a friend I’ve found in You
When no one else could keep their promise
I can always count on You
You’ve been my savior
You’ve been my shield
You’ve been my defender on the battlefield
You’ve been my father, You’ve been my Rock
You’ve been my portion and You’re more than enough
You’ve been my shelter, You’ve been my Strength
You’ve been my provider again and again
You’ve been my redeemer and I can’t comprehend
How the God of creation would call me His friend
What a friend I’ve found in You, Jesus
What a friend I’ve found in You
When no one else could keep their promise
I can always count on You
