Personal Friend
Donald Lawrence and the Tri-City Singers deliver a heartfelt gospel declaration in "Personal Friend & I Walk with the King," celebrating a close, personal relationship with Jesus Christ. The song describes Jesus as the King of David, the Rose of Sharon, and a humble Lamb who calmed the sea and paid a great price. The lyrics emphasize how Jesus makes a way out of no way, soothes doubts, wipes away tears, and remains near to comfort and cheer. The repeated refrain that He is a personal friend underscores the intimacy and reliability of faith, offering encouragement and assurance to listeners.
I've come to tell you 'bout Jesus Christ
How He walked on the water
Calmed the raging sea
King of David, seed of Abraham
Mighty Rose of Sharon
A meek and humble Lamb
Such a price He came to pay
Tell me what, what more can I say
You asked me how I know Him
How I know this Man
He's a personal friend of mine
He's a personal...
Oh well, He made a way out of no way
Soothe my doubts and fears
Wiped away my tears
When I need Him, He's always near
Ready, willing, and able
To comfort and to cheer
Such a price He came to pay
Tell me what, what more can I say
You asked me how I know Him
How I know this Man
He's a personal friend of mine
He's a personal friend
It ain't nobody to me like like Him, no, no, nobody...
Personal friend of mine
Personal friend of mine
It ain't nobody to me like like Him
No, no, no
No, no, no
No, no, nobody
