Oh, what a friend, so true, so kind,
Jesus, this friend of mine.
He helps me through the day,
He provides for me a way.
He's there for me when I need him the most,
When I need comfort, he holds me close.
His blessings come down like a shower,
He keeps me safe by his holy power.
When I look down from above,
My heart so full of love.
But, when I see the sin this world, my heart breaks in two.
I died and proved my love for you.
Yet, it seems not to be enough,
I have proven my love time and again you still refuse me.
Again, my heart breaks and my tears flow like a river,
I feel the nails, I hear the hammer, I am crucified again.
I stand at the door knocking, please, let me in.
I'll be your everything, even your friend.
I'll dry your tears away,
I'll help you another day.
