I have a best friend
Who cares lots for me
He carries me often
When I cannot see

He loves me and holds me
When I am so afraid
He gives to me sunshine
After the pouring rain

His smile is genuine
Not bought or sold
His compassion, priceless
Like bright shining gold

He always remembers me
Never will He forget
That I'm made in His image
I'm so glad that we met

Ever since I found Him
He's always been right there
And when I want to talk
I get on my knees in prayer

My friend's name is Jesus
With Him I am never alone
And He will be right beside me
When I reach my eternal home
