From the recording America - True Worship 26
Lyrics
There was a time I was lost in sin.
My life was empty nothing within.
I was confused and burdened with hate.
Mind in the gutter and had no faith.
When I considered where I was headed.
Someone shouted, you need a friend, and I said who do you recommend.
Someone yelled, call on Jesus. then another person said, He is a friend;
He is a friend; a friend; indeed, He will be your guide;
take you to higher grounds. He will clean up your life if you let Him in.
God is here; He really cares, He is your friend; a friend indeed.
Uh let's do it; uh He is a friend.
Deliverance is here; Salvation is here; He is a friend; so, forget about Hell;
He will make you clean inside; change your life!
You have a friend; indeed, Jesus; He is your friend!
