True Friend

Where do I begin?
Back in the same place once again
You've heard it all before
But you continue to ignore the truth that's ever crystal clear
A prisoner of your doubt and fear

Struggling to cope
Must be pretty lonely at the end of your rope
Can't get no sleep at night
You know something just ain't right
Why live in misery when there's a remedy?

Trying hard to make it work out
But you find yourself burnt out
Knowing you can't fix it on your own
Remember you don't have to ever be alone
Be encouraged by the words of this song

If you need a helping hand
Let me tell you 'bout a friend
He'll stick closer than a brother
Closer than a mother
No doubt
You can count on Him

And if you can't understand
Just remember that He can
He won't switch up on you
He'll love you through and through
In your time of need
He'll be a true friend indeed

Whatever you want
Whatever you need
He'll be a true
Friend indeed

Oh, yes He will

Oh

What in the world is going on?
(So much is going wrong)
It seems like everything is falling out of line
You're running out of time
Feels like you're way off track
And you can't find your way back

Now you've prayed and you've prayed
But the storm just won't fade
And you're just about to lose your mind
Remember trouble only lasts for one night
Just hang on, your rainbow is nigh

If you need a helping hand
Let me tell you 'bout a friend
He'll stick closer than a brother
Closer than a mother
No doubt
You can count on Him

And if you can't understand
Just remember that He can
He won't switch up on you
He'll love you through and through
In your time of need
(I'm telling you now) He'll be a true friend indeed

And I've never found a friend so true
And He can be that for you too
Trust and believe

(Oh He is able, He is faithful)

Yes He's faithful

If you need a helping hand
Let me tell you 'bout a friend
He'll stick closer than a brother
Closer than a mother
No doubt
You can count on Him

And if you can't understand
(No matter what it is)
(He'll walk right by your side) Just remember that He can
(He said it in his word, oh yeah) He won't switch up on you
(He said "lo, I'll be with you always") He'll love you through and through
In your time of need
(He'll never leave)
He'll be a true friend indeed

That's what He is
(What He Is)
That's who He'll be
(Who He'll be)
Who He is
(Who He is)
And what He'll be (what He'll be)

Through the good and the bad
(What He Is)
The thick and the thin
(Who He'll be)
Through the ups and the downs
(Who He is)
'Til the very end

Oh (what He Is)
He is everything you'll ever need (who He'll be)
You gotta know that's what our God will be (who He is, what He'll be)

When you're down and out (what He Is)
No one else to run to (who He'll be)
No place to go (who He is)
He'll be that and so much more

Whatever you want
Whatever you need
He'll be a true
Friend indeed
