Lyrics

You need a friend And Jesus said, "Call my name And I'll be there" When you're down and troubled You need some loving care Ain't nothing Ain't nothing going right Close, close your eyes And meditate on Him And soon, He will be there God can brighten up He can brighten up your darkest hours Precious Lord, take my hand (Take my hand) Lead me on, let me stand (Let me stand) I am tired (I am tired), I am weak (I am weak), I am worn Through the storm, through the night Lead me on to the light Take my hand, precious Lord, He's my friend (You just call out His name) Precious Lord, take my hand (And you know wherever you are) Lead me on, let me stand (He will be there to see you again) I get tired, I am weak, and I get worn, I get worn (Winter, spring, summer or fall) Through the storm, through the night (All you got to do is call) Lead me on Lord to the light And He'll be there, ooh (You've got a friend) Yeah, you've got a friend in Jesus (You've got a friend) You've got a friend, you've got a friend in Jesus, yes, you do (You've got a friend, ooh, ooh, ooh) You've got a mighty good friend in Jesus, I wonder, do you know it?
