Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team
Seems like you know when I need you
Seems like He knows who to send
You never come as a prophet
Just an open hearted friend
Faithfully wounding my pride
Bringing me back to His side
Sharing the Word that you hide in your heart
You are a true friend
Pointing me to Him
Lifting my downcast eyes
Turning my gaze to the sky
Probing your love again
You are a true friend
You are a true friend
Some days I feel like a failure
And I'd love to leave it all
I see no reason to go on
That's when you decide to call
Making it simple and clear
That's why your voice is so dear
My heart takes courage from hearing you say
You are a true friend
Pointing me to Him
Lifting my downcast eyes
Turning my gaze to the sky
Probing your love again
You are a true friend
You are a true friend
