Jesus is a Friend Lyrics

There was somebody I once knew

Sitting in the corner of the room

Couldn't walk along the trail laid out

Couldn't see the path beyond her doubt

The light inside her blooming red

From the pain and torment in her head

Darkness coming in on every side

All the grief remained inside her mind

You're right there in front of me

Why can't you see, my dear?

He's right there in front of you

He is the truth, it's clear

Now I know, if Jesus is a friend

Then I am not alone

Alone

And so, if he is at the end

Then nowhere is unknown

I am known

I saw the light flicker inside her mind

Didn't know it was the special kind

Too scared of being all alone

She didn't know that this would be her home

She traveled past all her fears

Only took a couple years

Saw Him in the bread and wine

Realized he's been the Way all of this time

You're right there in front of me

Why can't you see, my dear?

He's right there in front of you

He is the truth, it's clear

Now I know, if Jesus is a friend

Then I am not alone

Alone

And so, if he is at the end

Then nowhere is unknown

I am known

If I knew then, what I know now

I would have left the dark behind

Knew that the God who's my Creator

Has been before me all this time

If I knew then, what I know now

I would have left the dark behind

Knew that the God who's my Creator

Has been before me all this time

If I knew then, what I know now

I would have left the dark behind

Knew that the God who's my Creator

Has been before me all this time

Now I know, if Jesus is a friend

Then I am not alone

Alone

And so, if he is at the end

Then nowhere is unknown

I am known

There was somebody I once knew

Sitting in the corner of the room

She's growing so quick now, you see?

Have to say, the girl was me
