Friend

Friend, there will never be a friend
As dear to me as You
There will never be another
Closer than a brother
Friend always worth the wait
Faithful as the day
You say we are friends
You know all about me
The good and the bad
You know when I rise and fall
You see my beginning
You stand at the end
And yet You remain
Faithful to say I'm Your friend
Friend, there will never be a friend
As dear to me as You
There will never be another
Closer than a brother
Friend always worth the wait
Faithful as the day
You say we are friends
Everytime You call me
I receive Your healing
Everytime You call me friend
Friend, there will never be a friend
As dear to me as You
There will never be another
Closer than a brother
Friend always worth the wait
Faithful as the day
You say we are friends
