MY FRIEND
As I travel down life's highway,
I know my Lord's always there,
And I know I can rely upon
His tender loving care,
For He knows all of the byways
that I'm likely to explore
So He watches over me
because He's been that way before.
And when my road seems all uphill
and shadows gather round,
His understanding presence is
a blessing so profound.
I know that when I seek Him and
on Him my problems place,
He turns each stumbling-block
into a stepping-stone of faith.
If I follow His directions,
on the Lighted Path I'll stay,
And I'll reach my destination in the most straightforward way,
For He will not see me burdened
with a weight I cannot bear,
With His help I can stand straight and tall,
because His strength I share.
To me, each day's a beginning,
and a chance for me to show
Just how much I love and trust Him,
how much closer we can grow.
Just imagine, the Creator of the earth,
moon, stars and sun
Is my Friend and, to Him,
my soul is a very special one.
For I know He really loves me,
with a love that has no end,
And for comfort and enrichment
I can truly recommend
The assurance that He gives me,
and the hope that my heart feels,
As my strength grows stronger
with each truth His faithfulness reveals.
There's no limit to His Loving,
to His Patience, to His Power,
As He teaches me and guides me,
day by day and hour by hour.
So, if miracles are missing from your life,
don't muddle through,
Please, just call Him, He will hear you.
My friend could be your Friend too!
